Roots & Romance: A Black Woman’s Journey to Adulthood

Roots and Romance: A Black Woman’s Journey to Adulthood is Kinara’s debut poetry collection — a journey through love, lineage, and the stories that shape us. Blending modern rhythm with ancestral memory, and family history, Kinara writes about family, love, heartbreaks, healing and the ways Black women carry history in their voices.

These poems move like a conversation between the poet and audience reflecting on generational strength, exploring the sweetness of romance, and the trials of adulthood. Kinara invites her readers into her world where vulnerability is power.

Roots and Romance is both a love letter and a mirror — a reminder that who we come from matters, and who we become matters even more.

Droppin’ Knowledge: Poems in Black Girl Vernacular

Droppin’ Knowledge: Poems in Black Girl Vernacular is a bold, thought-provoking collection of poems where Kinara blends sharp insight, cultural truth-telling, and poetic storytelling into one powerful body of work. These poems speak in a voice shaped by Black history, family wisdom, lived experience, and the rhythms of everyday life.

From social commentary to intimate self-reflection, Kinara breaks things down with honesty, humor, and heart — the kind of writing that stays with you long after the page ends. Each poem drops a gem, a lesson, or a question that challenges readers to think deeper about who we are, what we inherit, and how we grow.

Droppin’ Knowledge is for the seekers, the thinkers, and everyone learning to speak their truth out loud.
