About the Author: New Orleans born and raised, Monique Lorden understands the power of poetry and storytelling. She weaves ancestral rhetoric and proclamations of freedom and revolution into rhyme, verse, and runs. Mother of two and stranger to none, Monique’s poetry feels like kinship. It is a gentle reminder from a family friend that we have overcame and we shall overcome.

Deso Libertad and I Wish For Freedom, are both beautifully and poignantly written. The English and Spanish editions are fun ways to understand and be reminded of what freedom means to you. The message is both timeless and right on time.” Sheryl Grace, Griot, Community Leader
