Cry, Baby

“Alternatively tender, sharp, and funny, Cry, Baby speaks beautifully to the power our tears carry, how they can transform both people and culture. The attention to crying's social dimensions--how our ability to weep is shaped by racism, patriarchy, homophobia, and other forces--make it particularly timely. A gift to all who cry, and all who long to.”

“Najeeba is one of the luminaries of our generation. What a treat that now, like many prophetic voices in the past, she’s sharing her poetry with the world. At once soulful, provocative, and nourishing.”

Learning to Cry

Preaching the Headlines

Preaching & Worship

“This book is a powerful intervention for intra-Christian conversations on faith and justice, and it's also more than that. This book is a model for how we can dig in collectively to the issues that matter most, with courage, commitment, and compassion.”

Precious Precarity

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Precious Precarity is a gift for all of us who want to live with humanity but don't always have access to human stories, especially when they pertain to the most vulnerable among us. This book is a wake-up call, both for our dehumanizing politics and for our ignorant hearts, and it creates space for compassion at a time when we need it most.”
