Do you remember your childhood? Don't feel ashamed if you don't, because most of us work overtime to forget what has made us. A story telling similar to Toni Morrison wrapped with the edge of Sister Souljah, encompasses Artson's story into her raw beginnings. She plummets into the pain and teachings of being a black plus-sized woman from Brooklyn, NY. Her cinematic eye along with a deep love for renaissance-inspired art has birthed a compilation of short stories and poems about a black girl's Brooklyn. Writing down the most intimate moments of fear, joy, and love has helped free her from suicide and mental illness. Now, she has channeled the many voices and stories of black women before her, to find the courage to pen her own story. The Being ideology proclaims, "We will not just BE stagnant or traumatized. Instead, we are constantly BEING who God has already destined us to be." Will you allow the pain from your past to penetrate your present? How far back are you willing to travel to heal your future? #BeingTheBook
