==== 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.
Natalie Baszile has a M.A. in Afro-American Studies from UCLA, and an MFA from Warren Wilson College's MFA Program for Writers. She is the author of the novel, Queen Sugar, which was adapted for seven television seasons and nominated for an NAACP Image Award.
