      In The Midst of My Blackness is an intense, raw and gritty book of poetry, about the challenges of being young, black, Choctaw and lesbian while growing up in White America. With unflinching honesty, Azaan explores the complexities of navigating a world that constantly denies her existence and treats her as if she is invisible. This amazing book sheds light on micro-aggressions of classmates and co-workers created by systemic racism woven into the fabric of our society. Through Azaan's painfilled words, we are transported into the heart of her experiences, where she wrestles with the intersections of religion, loss, race, gender, and her sexuality. We witness the struggles and triumphs of her journey, as she learns to love herself in a world that tells her she's unworthy. In the Midst of Azaan's Blackness, trials and tribulations there is hope. The brilliance of Azaan's writing and resilience shines through every poem, every line as she refuses to be silenced by the many forces that seek to erase her identity. In the end, we are left with a powerful testament to the strength and Black woman magic of stud who holds the world on her shoulders. This profound work teaches us all to speak and live our truths, no matter the cost. This very special book also includes photos of Azaan's indigenous ancestors and her closest loved ones.
