Ernest McMillan, a civil rights activist and full-time organizer in the Deep South, has compiled a collection of poems and short stories that delve into the intricate dynamics of love. While serving time in prison for his activism, McMillan began writing essays and short stories in earnest. These works, spanning from commentaries on society to short stories and poetry, reflect the experiences of a fugitive revolutionary spirit.

In conjunction with his memoir, Standing, this collection of poetry and short stories explores the profound themes of human rights activism and the pursuit of justice. Kneeling takes readers on a journey from the specific to the universal, emphasizing the importance of stillness, reflection, and connecting with one's inner self to discover what truly matters.

Through his words, McMillan invites us to contemplate the complexities of love, relationships, and the human experience, offering insights and perspectives that resonate with readers of all backgrounds.
