Oakland's Citywide Poetry Anthology Summary

"Voices from the Middle represents the rainbow of diversity that exists in the City of Oakland. These works act as a wonderful resource for parents, educators, community leaders and others concerned about our youth growing up in today's society; as this book sheds light and offers solutions to the issues young people face in Oakland. This collection of poetry is another reminder that together, we can do great things."
-Ronald V. Dellums, Mayor, City of Oakland

"As I read the words our (Oakland Unified School) children put on paper, I began to cry. My tears were joyful tears because of all the passion written in their words."
-Karen B. Todd, Director of Project SOAR II

"This fantastic poetry blends language, music, art and soul into a single, sublime composition which captures the distinctive spirit that makes Oakland so wonderfully unique."
