Acolytes
Written by: Nikki Giovanni
Junior High and High School Grades
This collection of eighty new poems from distinguished author and poet Nikki Giovanni offers a variety of subjects evoking images from history such as Rosa Parks and Civil Rights activists as well as contemporary events like Hurricane Katrina. I've read many of Giovanni's works and this one in particular struck me as a book that teachers could use for a read-a-loud choosing one poem to read and focus on for a literary, social, or political discussion.
