“i am beyond overjoyed to share a co-release date with the wildly incredible yrsa daley ward, who is of nigerian and jamaican descent and uk based. and the startling beautiful writer tapiwa mugabe, who is of zimbabwean descent and is also based in the uk. we will all be releasing collections of poetry on tuesday, june 17th :))) in doing so we are hoping to open, broaden, and nurture the support and community of writers in the african diaspora/ people of color diaspora :))) we can’t wait to begin the celebration of ‘us,’ through poetry with all of you :)))”
