Almost, Free

A timeless collection of lyrical expressions and photographs that capture humanity's dance with freedom. Through the voices of anonymous freedom fighters, award-winning author Laura Morgan Roberts authentically portrays praying, hoping, weeping, persisting, mourning, overcoming and accomplishing, all while birthing future generations who draw ever closer to freedom's precipice. This work is inspired by the author's decades of research into radical choices and pivotal moments that unlock possibilities for liberation. This compilation is the first to present Morgan Roberts' full body of poetry. By illuminating the energy and angst of individual and collective diversity, equity, inclusion and justice efforts, Almost, Free takes us on journeys from bondage, to liberation, to leadership, to reckoning and beyond.
