The last presidential election left a bitter divide not only between political parties but also between the races. Can race relations in the Trump Era be mended? America can achieve the elusive "greatness" our current president promised, but not through a political platform. America must embrace and exercise her humanity to do this.
Beverlyn L. Elliott is the author of numerous flash, short, and non-fiction which have been published or are forthcoming in online venues such as Apollo’s Lyre, Muscadine Lines: A Southern Journal, Yellow Mama, Pressboard Shanty, Flash Fiction Chronicles, and Fictionista Workshop.
In addition to writing, Elliott lives and works in a state which happens to be a vacation destination for people all over the world. She also heads a weekly book club and mentoring group for young women, and is a wife and mother. She is simultaneously working on three novels (because she is insane like that), a romance set in Paris, and a two-book saga set in the seventies and the nineties, during the time when the world was introduced to HIV/AIDs.
Beverlyn lives in the Florida Panhandle with her husband and one of her three children. While her nest is perilously close to being empty, she is not fretting about it. In fact, she can be seen dancing a jig when her children aren’t looking.
