Chablis Shields, a purple-haired Jesus chick with a line dance addiction, is engaged to marry her church’s most eligible young bachelor, John Gerald. After dodging a drone in an unbelievable proposal, she figures she’ll breeze through six months of planning and celebrations and arrive at the altar Instagram-ready and shining like a diamond. But the road to marital bliss grows rocky when she discovers her fiancé is far from being a muscular yet picture-perfect Christian. His financial situation isn’t quite what she counted on, but his solution becomes even more difficult to handle. And that future mother-in-love? Well, she isn’t exactly on Chablis’ side. Meanwhile, trauma from her past complicates her decision-making, and lingering issues from John’s dating history trouble their relationship. With a tight timeline and a village of loved one’s waiting for the big day, Chablis must decide: is she ready for a lifetime of sacrifice and commitment?

Determined to win the one she thinks is for her, Paige finds herself making one foolish decision after another. These decisions become detrimental to her and the life she’s worked so hard to maintain. Will she be able to pull herself out of Kyra’s web, or become too entangled and unable to break free?

That is until her one major crush, a local musician named Kyra, starts showing interest in her romantically. Thinking that she’s finally found “the one,” Paige ignores the constant red flags on her way toward gaining Kyra’s love.

Marquis Bey’s debut collection, Them Goon Rules, is an un-rulebook, a long-form essayistic sermon that meditates on how Blackness and nonnormative gender impact and remix everything we claim to know. A series of essays that reads like a critical memoir, this work queries the function and implications of politicized Blackness, Black feminism, and queerness. Bey binds together his personal experiences with social justice work at the New York–based Audre Lorde Project, growing up in Philly, and rigorous explorations of the iconoclasm of theorists of Black studies and Black feminism. Bey’s voice recalibrates itself playfully on a dime, creating a collection that tarries in both academic and nonacademic realms. Fashioning fugitive Blackness and feminism around a line from Lil’ Wayne’s “A Millie,” Them Goon Rules is a work of “auto-theory” that insists on radical modes of thought and being as a refrain and a hook that is unapologetic, rigorously thoughtful, and uncompromising.

Unapologetically Outspoken: Hip Hop, Social Justice and Liberation confronts social issues that are often ignored by the US corporate media, US educational institutions, as well as by the US government itself. This book is a collection of essays that challenge mainstream perspectives on everything, from institutional racism to imperialism to the vastly flawed United States electoral system. This book provides perspectives omitted by virtually every mainstream corporate media outlet throughout the USA. If the US corporate media system were balanced or democratic, it would provide the vast array of progressive and radical perspectives that readers will find within Unapologetically Outspoken: Hip Hop, Social Justice and Liberation.
