I thought it was fine. It wasn't nearly as political or focussed on protest and much as I'd have liked. Some context to the poems would have been nice. A great idea but not very well executed

While I found a few of the poems way too long for me (I love poetry, but more than two pages and my brain can't remember what's going on) I loved reading them all, and found so many new poets and poems to follow and keep! The curation is thoughtful and powerful, and showed me the value in poems I would never normally read on my own.
