kokosdad: I'm not really a poetry guy. I am a Joy Harjo Poetry guy.
What poetry is supposed to do, how it's meant to affect, where it's supposed to lead.....that's what this amazing Artist drops behind her every lyrical step.
Read.

Triadas: Truthful and empowering, filled with the pain of history, but most of all the love and pride of Native heritage.

Doomridion: Beautifully eloquent and thought provoking especially in our current political climate. The perspective of others is more important than ever for anyone and everyone to read

Light carrier: Joy Harmony’s American Sunrise amazed me through evoking powerful feelings of loss, grief, resignation, anger, acceptance of life and self-determination, and finally renewal. The masterful use of language pushes and pulls the reader/listener into a dream state of vision and reality mixed together and called a history of our life.
I experienced tears too often. I was surprised by laughter at times. I felt loss and pain. I appreciate renewal of my spirit. I now better understand self-determination.
This book led me to a poet, author, and performer I am sincerely enjoying through her published works. My life is enriched.
