The Coming Day

Arts & Literature

“Harold J. Recinos is the Truth! He is a bona fide voice for those seldom heard: those society ignores, beats back, keeps down, shoves out, erases. The Coming Day is a clarion call of compassion and balm for healing that must take place in order for us to advance as a human race. Recinos’ poems are stand-ins for searing soul-searching for a world sliding off its axis. These poems are the most necessary nourishment for they do what James Baldwin posits—bear witness! Recinos is a timely poet . . . needed now more than ever.”
