- The mixtape / by Cherry, Brittainy C.,author.(CARDINAL)826009;
Emery has never felt more alone. Raising her daughter is both her pleasure and her pain as she struggles to hold on to her job as a bartender and keep a roof over their heads. With no one to help them--no support system--any unexpected expense or late bill could turn their whole world upside down. Reeling from the death of his twin brother and bandmate, rock star Oliver Smith is trying to drink his problems away. Apparently he isn't very good at it; they follow him wherever he goes. Also in hot pursuit are the paparazzi, who catch Oliver at his lowest low. He could have walked into any bar in California, but he walked into hers. Emery helps Oliver lose the crowd, and they find themselves alone: two people whose paths are marked with loss and pain. However, they hold an unshakable hope for healing. They find solace together, but can their love withstand the world?

"Featuring images only recently discovered in the archives of Swedish television, here is the Black power movement as you've never seen it.

Powerful interviews, including extended material, with Stokely Carmichael and Angela Davis; whole new sections on Huey P. Newton, who was cut from the film almost entirely; Shirley Chisholm, who does not appear in the film at all; and material on the defense campaign for Joan Little, a very controversial and successful activist campaign that was one of the first Angela Davis took up out of prison. The book will introduce a new generation to the legacy of Black power. Includes new commentary by Erykah Badu, Talib Kweli, Harry Belafonte, Kathleen Cleaver, Angela Davis, Robin Kelley, Abiodun Oyewole, Sonia Sanchez, Bobby Seale, and Questlove; 'Addressing what might be thought of as standard historical and contemporary subjects with startlingly radical means, Göran Hugo Olsson's Black Power Mixtape : 1967-1975 is a collage of archival footage recorded in America, mostly by Swedish journalists, in the era of African American militancy. The images, accompanied by present-day voice-over reflections from historians, rappers, artists, and veterans of the era's racial politics, offer revelations about events and personalities we thought we understood completely'--The New York Times; 'We have much to learn from these visionary organizers who sought to redefine and re-imagine democracy, whose sense of empowerment derived from the belief that the people could be the architects for change'--Danny Glover, from the preface"--Cover.

- Only stars know the meaning of space : a literary mixtape / by Ngamije, Remyauthor;
The hope, the prayer, and the anthem (or, the fall so far) -- Wicked -- Crunchy green apples (or, omo) -- The neighborhood watch -- Black, colored, and blue (or, the gangster's girlfriend) -- Important terminology for military-age males -- Yog'hurt (or, just breathe) -- Annus horribilis -- Love is a neglected thing (or, Corinthians) -- The giver of nicknames -- Little brother (or, three in the morning) -- The other guy -- Tornado (or, the only poem you ever wrote) -- Seven silences of the heart -- The sage of the six paths (or, the life and times of the five Os) -- Granddaughter of the octopus -- From the lost city of Hurtlantis to the streets of Helldorado (or, Franco) -- Nine months since forever (Cicero's interlude) -- Hope is for the unprepared (or, me) -- Only stars know the meaning of space (love's interlude) -- Sofa, so good, sort of (or, John Muafangejo).Presented as a literary mixtape, Only Stars Know the Meaning of Space is a work of literature that provides you with a modern reading experience. The A-Side, read as one narrative, tells the story of a soon-to-be thirty-year-old aspiring writer navigating a complicated world. The B-Side, taken as a separate experience, features (seemingly) independent and unrelated short stories. There's "Crunchy, Green Apples (or, Omo)", a story about loss told by the strangest of narrative devices: a shopping list. "Sofa, So Good, Sort Of (or, John Muafangejo)" is a first-person account of a family's history and a long journey towards hope. A group of friends attempts to navigate a recent breakup in "From the Lost City of Hurtlantis to the Streets of Helldorado (or, Franco)." When read together, however, a third world emerges -- a complex, intergenerational, and interconnected world exploring the universal gaping void of grief. Rather than attempting to cross this black hole directly, the collection carefully traces around its edges, revealing the enormity of this cosmic force[...]" --

- I love you so much it's killing us both : a novel, or an annotated mixtape / by Stovall, Mariah,author.(CARDINAL)883948;
"Set in the suburbs of Los Angeles and New York City, I Love You So Much It's Killing Us Both is an immersive journey into the life and mind of Khaki Oliver, who's perennially trying to disappear into something: a codependent friendship, an ill-advised boyfriend, the punk scene, or simply, the ether. These days it's a meaningless job and a comfortingly empty apartment. Then, after a decade of estrangement, she receives a letter from her former best friend. Fiona's throwing a party for her newly adopted daughter and wants Khaki to join the celebration. Khaki is equal parts terrified and tempted to reconnect. Their platonic love was confusing, all-consuming, and encouraged their worst impulses. While stalling her RSVP, Khaki starts crafting the perfect mixtape-revisiting memories of formative shows, failed romances, and the ups and downs of desire and denial-while weighing the risks and rewards of saying yes to Fiona again." --
