description: Poetry. "WHY AM I SO BROWN? is a compelling scenario of ideals and cultural activism. Trinidad's signature poem 'Let Us Stop This Madness' sets the tone for a plurality of global political justice. Through an integration of barrio rhythm and street orality, he finds identity and culture. His sensitive and mature hand captures a consciousness that is a framework for aesthetic realism and change. In this, Trinidad's fifth book, his sense of humanity has gelled into completeness. This is a must read for anyone who will take the challenge to investigate this form we call poetry"-Ron Allen, Horizons in Poetry, Detroit, Michigan.
