This is one of the most powerful poems I have ever read. Suzanna sees the big picture, and delivers a gut punch to the privileged. Her imagery is brilliant, and profound. Unfortunately, those in power who need to read it, won't. Resist, but teach those willing to learn. Suzanna de Baca is one of the best poets in the Americas. Her work--her truths--unites us, if you are willing to seek the truth.

Susanna, a breathtaking poem that can wake us up. It’s easy to celebrate these days without feeling the import in our poems.

It's hard to find words to express the profound insight and honesty this poem expresses. I only hope that it might find its way to the desks/computers/offices of those who need to hear this message the most. Thank you for your courageous voice at such a critical juncture in American life.
