  • Description

A new collection of work by the Baltimore author.

Foreword by Valencia D. Clay.

"As a professor, I've had the luxury of developing new writers for years and I must say that Kondwani Fidel was never an amateur. He proves this with Hummingbirds in The Trenches, the follow up to his acclaimed Raw Wounds. Not only is Hummingbirds in The Trenches a deeply humanizing page turner, it's a timely narrative that gives us a glimpse into the Black America we rarely encounter in mainstream. Fidel has a gift for storytelling and has brilliantly constructed the type of memoir that reminds me of why I fell in love with words. I highly recommend!"
-- D Watkins, New York Times Bestselling author of The Cook Up and The Beast Side

"What we are witnessing in Kondwani Fidel is a living archive of what extraordinary price both triumph and tribulation Black America pays by the hour. Kondwani's words are a guillotine. His stories, measure the pulse of the forgotten."
--Tariq Touré, author of Black Seeds

"Kondwani's brutal, brilliant essays transport us to the truth of the matter with such grit and wonderful balance."
-- Yrsa Daley-Ward, author of Bone and The Terrible
