I Can't Breathe: Poetry Inspired By George Floyd by Jamal Smith

dark emotional medium-paced

5.0

This collection of poems is a damning indicment of both white supremacy and the white complicity with racism and the poet's disgust at white slacktivism and the quick bastardisation of the Black Lives Matter movement for politicians and white people looking for social media credit. The poems are raw, emotional and has no qualms in hiding their message in comforting tones or soft metaphors.
