BLACK BUBBLEGUM

About the Book

Black Bubble Gum is written primarily for people who live in inner city communities. The purpose behind writing a book with this kind of context is simply to inspire people in ghettos across the world,and to show that written art can be created out of any life circumstance. William A. Gonzalez writes pieces like Black Bubble Gum, which paints a bloody scene from the view of a piece of bubble gum stuck onto a public sidewalk. This book includes authentic poetry biographies that replace generations of generic stanzas with soul driven pieces for people who have lost their lives to public street violence. It also includes inspirational poems for youth and unity pieces for future humanity. The splattering of ink on this book finishes with a section filled with a variety of quotes.

“Black Bubble Gum penetrates souls with a new flavor of written literature.”

William gives the American- Worldwide people the ability to read authentic ghetto short stories that reflect truth.
