“A love letter to Harlem and hope. I Rise is smart and funny and full of heart.*”
Fourteen-year-old Ayo who has to decide whether to take on her mother’s activist role when her mom is shot by police. As she tries to find answers, Ayo looks to the wisdom of her ancestors and her Harlem community for guidance.
Ayo's mother founded the biggest civil rights movement to hit New York City in decades. It’s called ‘See Us’ and it tackles police brutality and racial profiling in Harlem. Ayo has spent her entire life being an activist and now, she wants out. She wants to get her first real kiss, have a boyfriend, and just be a normal teen.
When her mom is put into a coma after a riot breaks out between protesters and police, protestors want Ayo to become the face of See Us and fight for justice for her mother who can no longer fight for herself. While she deals with her grief and anger, Ayo must also discover if she has the strength to take over where her mother left off.
This impactful and unforgettable novel takes on the important issues of inequality, systemic racism, police violence, and social justice.
*Kwame Alexander, New York Times bestselling author
When your mother’s fight becomes your own, where do you find the strength to rise?
- Reluctant Activist: Fourteen-year-old Ayo never wanted to be a leader; she just wanted to be a normal teen. But when her mother is shot, she’s the only one who can step up for the ‘See Us’ movement.
- A Powerful Mother-Daughter Story: Rosalie Bosia has been a civil rights icon her whole life, but to Ayo, she’s just Mom. Their relationship is tested and transformed in the wake of tragedy.
- Community and Ancestors: Facing an impossible choice, Ayo draws on the wisdom of her Harlem neighborhood and the ancestors who walked its streets before her.
- A Timely Social Justice Novel: Perfect for teens, parents, and educators, this novel tackles the urgent issues of systemic racism and inequality with honesty and heart.
