In this fierce debut collection, poet Frank X Walker tells the story of growing up young, Black, artistic, and male in one of America&;s most misunderstood geographical regions. As a proud Kentucky native, Walker created the word &;Affrilachia&; to render visible the unique intersectional experience of African Americans living in the rural and Appalachian South.
