For Every Black Woman's Soul II is the second installment of the For Every Black Wo/Man series. Following the same trajectory as Book I, this poetry medley addresses various archetypes of Black women. However, this collection is a bit more sassy, playful, as it touches on some of the latest current events via social media and entertainment.

For Every Black Woman’s Soul is the first installment of a poetic medley that debunks, affirms, and questions stereotypes and the various archetypes that Black women have been berated with. Berated, labeled so much to where they renamed and took ownership of these terms. These terms have shaped Black Women Identity throughout the last two centuries. Let me say that I take the strong stance that it is not my responsibility to break stereotypes that I didn’t create.

If Men, Then, Eliza Griswold's second poetry collection, charts a radical spiritual journey through catastrophe. Griswold's language is forthright and intimate as she steers between the chaos of a tumultuous inner world and an external landscape littered with SUVs, CBD oil, and go bags, talismans of our time. Alternately searing and hopeful, funny and fraught, the poems explore the world's fracturing through the collapse of the ego, embodied in a character named "I" - a soul attempting to wrestle with itself in the face of an unfolding tragedy.
