"From Crack Mother to Wildflower, Writing to Transgress: The Sankofa Writing Method" by Dr. Ayana T. Hardaway is an intergenerational narrative that explores the impact of the crack cocaine epidemic on Black women and their families during the 1980s and 1990s. Through the perspectives of Blackgirlhood and womanhood, Hardaway historicizes this era, revealing the violence and struggles faced by Black women victims of the epidemic. The book deconstructs racist media hysteria and harmful stereotypes like the 'Bad Black Crack Mother' and 'Crack Baby' tropes, examining their role in perpetuating violence and control over Black bodies. Hardaway engages with scholarship that amplifies marginalized truths and bridges theory with practice as tools of resistance in qualitative research. Hardaway introduces Endarkened Afrofuturist Feminism, combining Afrofuturism with Black feminist epistemologies, and uses Shapeshifting as a metaphor for reclaiming one's narrative. Through Black feminist storytelling and critical autoethnography, she weaves childhood memories into a self-healing practice, reimagining her mother's future as a liberated 'Wildflower'. Inspired by literary scholars like bell hooks, Toni Morrison, Octavia E. Butler, and Alice Walker, Hardaway demonstrates how writing and storytelling serve as tools of resistance and restoration for Black women. She presents The Sankofa Writing Method, a Black speculative and Afrofuturist writing methodology, offering a blueprint for remembering, recovering, and moving forward in healing. This powerful work is a call to reclaim and reimagine the voices of Black mothers, daughters, and sisters, showcasing the transformative power of writing and narrative reconstruction and reclamation.
