CONTAINS 10 Poems----Written December 2008, "God's Hair" is Kola Boof's poem commemorating the election of Barack Obama. The Sudanese-born American author says: "I cried with joy when I voted for Obama--not just because I had campaigned so hard for him to be elected--but because he has the Proof; God's Hair; African hair; nappy hair--the marker of the Black race on his head. As and African mother, that is one of the reasons I cried when I voted." Many people criticized Kola Boof for actively campaigning for Barack Obama in 2008.CONTAINS: 10 poems by Kola Boof.
