The Causes
Thus far, Barrio Blues Press is donating all proceeds from its anthologies and publications to The Chicago Freedom School (Nation), Doctors without Borders (Unity, Volume 1: A Magical Realism Anthology), and The League of Revolutionaries for a New America (My Spoken Word Wife: Playing for Keeps).
Represented authors get to select their charity and either donate all the money to the charity or do a 50/50 split, so the author gets 50% of the royalties.
It warms my heart that most the contracted authors have generously donated all the proceeds to a charity of their choice. That is part of the way we make a better world possible.

On My Spoken Word Wife: Playing for Keeps:
"The streets are mean, but the gentle heart of a poet conquers the rage and puts it on the page. Beat by beat, the poetry unfolds and reveals visions from a shaman’s heart. The Sacred Poet is back, and he’s got your back. The Ancestors speak truth and sing through Juarez’s words and declarations of freedom and liberation. "
