"Divided into four sections, Poetry as Spellcasting utilizes poetry as a tool for healing-justice transformation. The book guides readers to explore and deepen the creative and intuitive parts of themselves as catalysts for transformative healing and social change"--

In this latest book by the award-winning author of the hugely influential Male Daughters, Female Husbands, Ifi Admadiume propels gender relations beyond dichotomies and discriminations, and towards a power-sharing argument in discourse, contestation and resistance. Representing the culmination of over 40 years of ground-breaking work on notions of matriarchy at the intersection of the Igbo-African universe and the Western capitalist reality, Amadiume sets forth a blueprint for a bold new matriarchitarianism, critiquing all forms of social injustice with a shared matriarchal-relational humanism. In each chapter of the book, Amadiume applies these principles to a dazzling array of subjects: from religious leadership, kinship and family relations, to sexuality, creative writing and matters of conscience in race, class and gender. African Possibilities explodes our notions of matriarchy into original and compelling arguments, and offers a radical alternative approach to the world's entrenched injustices.

PRAISE FOR FREEDOM TEACHING "As a lifelong advocate for change, Matthew Kincaid has written an indispensable guide for educators and activists alike. This book brilliantly unpacks the complexities of anti-racism in education." --SALVATORE LAROCCA, President, Global Partnerships, National Basketball Association and Chairman of the Board of Trustees, La Salle Academy "Matthew Kincaid has been a leader in freedom teaching for many years, exemplifying the principles on which he writes and refining the principles he shares. He has set a powerful blueprint, and this book serves as a reminder that freedom--and hate--begin in the classroom. Freedom Teaching helps us make the right choices with intention and love." --BRITTANY PACKNETT CUNNINGHAM, activist and host of UNDISTRACTED "Matthew Kincaid has been leading anti-racism initiatives since he was 14 years old. His passion, commitment, and dedication to this cause is illustrated in the attention to detail in this book. Freedom Teaching strikes at the core of the injustice in our education system while offering vision for a more hopeful, just and equitable future." --CONSTANCE JONES, CEO, Noble Schools "Freedom Teaching is a powerful tool to advance social justice education with K-12 schools! For educators who are committed to leveraging education as a mechanism to promote justice, liberation, and empowerment, this text richly equips you with the strategies or how. I have always been a fan of Matthew Kincaid's work, and this text is yet another manifestation of his genius! I highly recommend it, and cannot wait to leverage it as a tool to support both new and seasoned educators looking for resources to expand their ability to help craft youth who are agents of change within our world!" --KRYSTAL H. ALLEN, author of What Goes Unspoken; CEO, K. Allen Consulting "When it comes to the critical truth telling needed to shake up age-old systems and structures so they can't operate as they have in the past, Matthew Kincaid is without equal.
