You Can't Say That! In "Anacostia Diaries" DC Native Says It Regardless

Francwa Sims uses his sarcastic humor, rage and poetic license to ask the questions that most are afraid too and to say the things that most keep taboo.

(PRWEB) December 5, 2004 -- Francwa Sims often uses harsh criticism and personal commentary to delve into such wide-reaching, controversial topics as racism, violence, class, politics, religion and more. In several pieces, he explores the various quirks of American society, showing not only that American society is really not as free as it seems, especially for the poor. And he argues that in the twenty-first century, a new definition is needed of the words "life," "liberty," "the pursuit of happiness," "society" and "human rights."

With simple yet poetic craft, Francwa Sims, himself a lifetime resident of Washington, D.C., often uses humor and his rage as well as surrealism to show his broad range of literary skills. His past credits include "Anacostia Diaries" series, on the DC Independent Media Center website, a mention in the Washington Post, "I on the News" and he now has a blog on awcnarf.bravejournal.com and a column on ThinkTankMag.com.
