==== About the Book & Author ====
We are Each Other's Harvest: Celebrating African American Farmers, Land & Legacy is Natalie Baszile's new non-fiction book that features a mix of essays, poems, portraits, narratives and more.
This collection tells the story of the connection of Black people to the land from Emancipation to the present. With a desire to shift the narrative around agriculture, farming and labor, Baszile shares the stories of Black farmers and land stewards.
