Historical poetry is an intriguing way to learn about the past - and especially about events from the past that often are NOT taught and/or are glossed over in school curriculums. I left this collection knowing more, but I also left it wanting more.

Not only is this a beautifully produced book (from small Chicago press Haymarket Books), but the poems are outstanding, exploring the Chicago race riots of 1919, with excerpts from the report into the riots and other texts. Highly recommended.
