I recommend watching some of their performances, too. Their poetry is so powerful, with or without hearing the way they deliver the words. The final poem in this collection is the perfect one to end the book. It's titled "Dream Where Every Black Person Is Standing by the Ocean." It's the way I wished all movies and books would end, all of them, and no epilogue.
