This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A PBS NewsHour Best Book of the Year A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year in Nonfiction A brilliant scholar imparts the lessons bequeathed by the Black community and its remarkable artists and thinkers. Farah Jasmine Griffin has taken to her heart the phrase "read until you understand," a line her father, who died when she was nine, wrote in a note to her. She has made it central to this book about love of the majestic power of words and love of the magnificence of Black life. Griffin has spent years rooted in the culture of Black genius and the legacy of books that her father left her. A beloved professor, she has devoted herself to passing these works and their wisdom on to generations of students. Here, she shares a lifetime of discoveries: the ideas that inspired the stunning oratory of Frederick Douglass and Malcolm X, the soulful music of Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, the daring literature of Phillis Wheatley and Toni Morrison, the inventive artistry of Romare Bearden, and many more. Exploring these works through such themes as justice, rage, self-determination, beauty, joy, and mercy allows her to move from her aunt’s love of yellow roses to Gil Scott-Heron’s "Winter in America." Griffin entwines memoir, history, and art while she keeps her finger on the pulse of the present, asking us to grapple with the continuing struggle for Black freedom and the ongoing project that is American democracy. She challenges us to reckon with our commitment to all the nation’s inhabitants and our responsibilities to all humanity.

Book excerpt: Preface Jasmine is a flower, which is associated with love. Jasmine also symbolizes beauty and sensuality. In some cultures, Jasmine represents appreciation and good luck. When used in religious ceremonies jasmine represents purity. Jasmine’s meaning varies depending on the culture and setting. Jasmine. It is originated from Persian ﻦﻴﻤﺳﺎﻳ or ﻦﻤﺳﺎﻳ, (Yasmeen or Yasmin), which means the Yas flower. Facebook has over the time emerged as the beautiful platform for not only social interaction but also for finding new friends. This enables meeting people of one’s choicest friends. Friendship many times developed into intimate relations and turns into love. I read the book ”Not Equal to Love” written Senior Novelist Sri Suraj Prakash ji. That gave me idea to find some clues on the Facebook and attempt to weave a story. I studied couple of cases and have woven a story. The story in Jasmine has been flavoured with various contours of love both emotional as well as physical. I have written this Poetic novel in English as my maiden effort. I have picked a character from Indonesia and one from India. I found the culture and social advancement in Indonesia attractive and practical and Indian culture and behaviour well known to me. I have developed the character as a bindas person named Jasmine, who is emotionally very strong and very practical in life. She faces various odd and sad parts in life bravely and loves her Life Stars very intensely. She happens to be abandoned-like from her parents and she grew under the custody of her Uncle and Aunty. She encountered all religions in life. She selects her life partner herself and begins her life nicely. But she had to face demise of her husband after a short married life. Later she encounters with an Indian person on Facebook, which becomes her darling person in life and who rejuvenates love in her life. She dedicatingly sinks into that life and lives happily. While configuring some special effects of love, I relied on the literary excerpts from other works and with their quotes have tried to bring new dimension to love. Similarly have also inserted some songs, which are practically used to convey feelings to the other person with whom one loves. These practical but experimental steps, I feel, would give a new look to the work and should look as raw but real flash of love expressions. I was asked why did I select the title “Jasmine”. I think when writing a poetic love story, Jasmine is the most suitable title as it embraces beauty, sensuality, purity appreciation and good luck I have been writing poetry in Hindi. I have written stories and novels in Hindi in potry format as Poetic love story or Poetic Novel. My poetic novels namely ‘Mere Hisse ki Dhoop’ and ‘Urvashi’ have been published in Hindi. As I have been writing in Hindi. Jasmine is my first attempt in English. I sincerely hope that this poetic novel would attract the readers with new idea and would receive comment and suggestions from the readers.
