O knihe

A POETIC TRIBUTE TO THE YOUNG'UNS WHO LUNCHED WITH OPRAH is a cultural tour. It is a rhythmic exploration of some of the most enriching young women of our time. This book is a continuation of the poetry series that began with "A Poetic Tribute To The Legends Who Lunched With Oprah."

The concept of both books was inspired by Oprah's 2005 Legends Luncheon. At that luncheon, Oprah designated 25 of her invited guests as Legends - women who have been "a Bridge to Now" for her. Oprah categorized the remaining women (including herself) as Young'uns - women who have benefited from the work of the Legends. The list of Young'uns included women such as Michelle Obama, Janet Jackson, Alicia Keys, Kathleen Battle, Suzanne de Passe, Gayle King, Phylicia Rashad, Debbie Allen, Terry McMillan, Pam Grier, and Mariah Carey.

The authors have honored 20 of these young women with poems that reflect their personal contributions. The intent is to highlight their lives so that the reader is compelled to learn more about each of these women. Prepare to be enlightened and prepare to be inspired for the Young'uns are here!
