Dame's long-awaited novel, "The Sons of Shea", is finally here and the reviews are in!  "In Dame DaVohn’s novel of self-determination and redemption, The Sons of Shea, the characters and plot seem ripped from the headlines.... DaVohn, as an author, hammers away at the cultural nationalist themes of renewal and redemption of a community by its people, namely its men. It’s almost a fictional vision akin to a novel which would have been written by a young Huey Newton or Marcus Garvey...At the heart and soul of this bold and wise novel is a singular understanding of the African American urban experience. DaVohn instinctively know what connects us, what strengthens us..."  Robert Fleming, African American Literary Book Club "This is a timeless story because it revisits a time in our history when people cared about their communities, their neighbors, their children, their surroundings, and were willing to stand up and fight..." Push Nevahda, Readersrooms.com "Even as a white, book reviewer living in the country I could empathize with the people of this inner-city neighborhood...As Bishop tells us (his ultimate followers)..."There has to be a way to take a man that's been beaten down, stripped, and emasculated before the entire world, or a woman that's been raped so completely that she herself believes she's little more than a bitch or a ho', and convince them that they are still worth loving.  That's the task, that's the challenge...that's the movement."  John Lehman, Bookreview.com
