From our Book Arts Collection, Mourning/Warning: An Abecedarian by Tia Blassingame.

“Stripping the maritime alphabet of its primary colors except blue and replacing them with muted browns and blacks, Mourning/Warning highlights the relationship of Americans of the African diaspora to water and maritime trade as well as the need for an alternate means of communication in times of emergency and duress. How do you send a warning call when hatred comes constantly in waves?”
