Toni Morrison: Uplifting Black Stories

article image placeholderToni Morrison Reshaped the Landscape of Literature
Some of her greatest novels, Sula Song of Sullivan and Beloved Beloved, is my personal favorite book. All of these stories encapsulate black stories, stories of origin, stories of escape and return. Morrison didn't shy away from talking about slavery, the legacy of slavery, the impact that it had on generations thereafter

Gushing about my favorite author, Toni Morrison #blackhistory #blm https://bit.ly/3anKngb

some quotes from Toni Morrison

I never asked James Joyce, not to mention Catholicism or the world of Dublin. Never. And I don't know why I should be asked to explain your life to you. We have splendid writers to do that. But I am not one of them. It is that business of being universal. A world hopelessly stripped of meaning for me, Faulkner wrote what I suppose could be called a regional literature and had it published all over the world. That's what I wish to do
