Like a Hammer: Poets on Mass Incarceration - Diana Marie Delgado

Descriere Like a Hammer: Poets on Mass Incarceration - Diana Marie Delgado

\nLike A Hammer is an anthology of poems that unearths the shared traumas produced by America's incarceration system. \n \n These powerful poems of witness seek to address the oppressive systems that make up the US prison-industrial complex, revealing cracks in a criminal punishment system that too often appears unchangeable. The impacts of that system reverberate through lives and across generations. The poets gathered here aim to foreground the real experiences of people touched by the system, to upend dominant narratives, shine light on injustice, and act as a fulcrum around which to organize communities in support of change. \n \n Like A Hammer explores how art and imagination can serve as vehicles for endurance, offering us the hope to envision a better future. \n \n Contributors include: Hanif Abdurraqib, Rhionna Anderson, Reginald Dwayne Betts, Cody Bruce, Marcelo Hernandez Castillo, Natalie Diaz, Tongo Eisen-Martin, Pat Ewok, Nikky Finney, Kennedy A. Gisege, Vicki Hicks, Jessica Hill, Randall Horton, Sandra Jackson, Catherine LaFleur, Ada Limón, Sarah Lynn Maatsch, Christopher Malec, Eduardo Martinez, John Murillo, Kenneth Nadeau, Angel Nafis, Leeann Parker, James Pearl, Christina Pernini, Raquel Salas Rivera, Patrick Rosal, Nicole Sealey, Evie Shockley, Patricia Smith, Sin á Tes Souhaits, Vanessa Angélica Villarreal, Candace Williams, and SHE>i.\n
