Reception

Ghost in a Black Girl's Throat received positive reception. Bella Morais praised the collection in The Root, "Ghost in a Black Girl's Throat is a searing confrontation of the living and reconciliation with the ghosts that exist deep within Rae as she examines the racism, sexism and bigotry she is subjected to on a daily basis."[2] Nicole Shawan Junior hailed the collection in a review for The Rumpus: "Rae's collection is a spiritual journey replete with trauma, pain, exaltation, transcendence...Through this examination of the tentacles that shackle the necks of Black women and girls, Rae gives us hope. A blueprint for how we can bobby pin pick off the handcuffs, free our larynxes and limbs from America's ghosts, and deliver ourselves into a wild we call our own."[3] Meghan Sterling praised the writing in Entropy: "Through sharp, imagistic tension, Rae’s poems come alive."[4] Publishers Weekly wrote of the collection: "Readers will be taken by the sometimes dangerous world Rae conjures."[5]
