As the world begins to shift to an unpleasant and frightful state, at the switching of hands in the white house. Hate-once hidden behind closed doors, only shared amongst like-minds. Now shines bright like sunlight casting shadows and distress on the American people. From the shadows, arise a butterfly from beneath the cracked pavement, bringing hope, shining light on the struggles of black and brown American people; chained to a corrupt and unjust system. This collection of poetry, prose, quotes, songs, and rap verse; written by the motivational poet, writer, and blogger Dawn Dean; Cracks in the Pavement: Struggles of Butterflies gives insight into the lives of the underprivileged while informing the privileged who may never understand the outcry for black lives. Dawn paints a portrait, taking the reader along an emotional journey of the black people, from slavery to the present day. "To understand the complaints of the black people and why they express themselves the way they do, one would have to live and breathe the life a the black man, the black woman every day. Therefore, being privileged (born white), others could never fully comprehend the suffering and cries of the black people. However, I pray and hope this collection will give those allowed to live freely without judgment because of the color of their skin some clarity, to become a little more compassionate for the colored man." -Dawn Dean
