I bought this book as I know a poet who has a poem included in this anthology. So glad I did as this is a testament to the incident and interesting to see how voices have reacted to it via poems in this book. I highly recommend you buy this!

This beautiful collection explores the ramifications behind the call ‘Black Lives Matter’: all the different experiences and aspects of living as a Black person are important and valuable. This book takes in personal elegies, joyous lyrics, and searing reflections on societies, as well as much more. If you are human, read this book.

This is an excellent new anthology of very diverse poems. All speak poignantly to the issues of BLM. Some are background stories, some are individual stories, stories of anguish and stories of hope. Some provoke and some soothe. An excellent timely gift for anyone and everyone.
