Sing the Truth: The Kweli Journal Short Story Collection. Edited x Laura Pegram 208 pp. May 13, 2025, Authors Equity. Fiction anthology. “Stories,” Edwidge Danticat says in the foreword, “are like the type of paintings or photographs you find yourself fully absorbed in. You know something happened before and after the image you’re looking at, but you wholly fall into it while taking it in.” It’s a great summary of this anthology from Kweli, which although a fairly mixed bag, I found mostly good. https://hararereview.wordpress.com/2025/09/18/sing-the-truth-the-kweli-journal-short-story-collection-edited-x-laura-pegram/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
