Nominee, 2012 NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work in Poetry

The poems in Nikky Finney's breathtaking new collection Head Off & Split sustain a sensitive and intense dialogue with emblematic figures and events in African American life: from civil rights matriarch Rosa Parks to former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, from a brazen girl strung out on lightning to a terrified woman abandoned on a rooftop during Hurricane Katrina. Finney's poetic voice is defined by an intimacy that holds a soft yet exacting eye on the erotic, on uncanny political and family events, like her mother's wedding waltz with South Carolina senator Strom Thurmond, and then again on the heartbreaking hilarity of an American president's final State of the Union address.

Artful and intense, Finney's poems ask us to be mindful of what we fraction, fragment, cut off, dice, dishonor, or throw away, powerfully evoking both the lawless and the sublime.

Great non-toxic sunscreen option!!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Very happy with the ingredients in this sunscreen! I feel great about putting it on my skin. Just know it leaves a pretty noticeable white sheen when you wear it. I've noticed that a lot with natural sunscreens but it's worth it!

Very heave texture.
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The texture is very heavy and greasy, and it leaves a white cast that takes quite a while to disappear. It’s probably fine for the body during beach days, but not for daily use — especially not on the face.

Great product
I bought this SPF because it was on the EWG site. We used this for a southern carribbean cruise. I am very pleased! No sunburn but got a great tan. Easy to apply. Highly recommend!

Works well even in water.
Was able to apply and use for hours even in water without reapplying. Usually burn but not with this. It does go on white and very thick but runs in.
