“I’m sorry,” said Yetu. “There’s so much to tell you, yet I never know where to begin. But I am ready now. I can speak. I can tell you why I did what I did and it has nothing to do with wanting to die.” Yetu holds the memories for her people. Her people, the wajinru – descendants of pregnant African slave women thrown overboard by slave owners – live idyllic lives in the deep. Their past, too painful to be remembered regularly, is forgotten by everyone, save one. The memories – harrowing and wonderful, traumatic and terrible – are destroying Yetu. And so she flees to the surface, escaping her expectations and responsibilities – and discovers a world the wajinru left behind long ago. Inspired by the hit song by clipping. (comprised of Daveed Diggs, William Hutson, and Jonathan Snipes), The Deep will resonate long after the last page is turned.
