Prepare yourself for something unlike anything: A smash-up of art and text for teens that viscerally captures what it is to be Black. In America. Right Now. Written by #1 New York Times bestselling and award-winning author Jason Reynolds.

Jason Reynolds and his best bud, Jason Griffin had a mind-meld. And they decided to tackle it, in one fell swoop, in about ten sentences, and 300 pages of art, this piece, this contemplation-manifesto-fierce-vulnerable-gorgeous-terrifying-WhatIsWrongWithHumans-hope-filled-hopeful-searing-Eye-Poppingly-Illustrated-tender-heartbreaking-how-The-HECK-did-They-Come-UP-with-This project about oxygen. And all of the symbolism attached to that word, especially NOW.

And so for anyone who didn’t really know what it means to not be able to breathe, REALLY breathe, for generations, now you know. And those who already do, you’ll be nodding yep yep, that is exactly how it is.

The way the text and artwork blend together really captures the feeling of being Black in America right now—it’s raw and honest. I’ve been rereading certain pages because the collage-style visuals hit me differently each time. This is the kind of book that stays with you long after you put it down.

Riley ★★★★★

I was blown away by how the collage-style art interacts with the sparse, powerful text—it really captures that specific feeling of being Black in America right now. My teenage son actually put down his phone to read it twice in one sitting.

Ruby ★★★★★

The way the text and art crash together on each page made me stop and really feel every single word — it’s raw in a way I wasn’t expecting. I’ve been reading through it slowly, one spread at a time, and it’s already hitting me harder than most books I’ve picked up this year. Absolutely worth the rea
