Ten Black British Poets from the West Midlands, edited by Eric Doumerc and Roy McFarlane (Birmingham Poet Laureate 2011)
Celebrate Wha? is an anthology of poems about identity and race, curried goat ‘n’ rice. Ten poets - Dreadlock Alien, Sue Brown, Marcia Calame, Evoke, Martin Glynn, Michelle Hubbard, Kokumo, Roy McFarlane, Chester Morrison and Moqapi Selassie - explore what it means to be black and British and from the West Midlands. This is the English language in a Caribbean coat, Auden in a Creole accent. Celebrate Wha? celebrates writing with a reggae rhythm, born out of a heady mixture of dub, grime and performance poetry, politics and music, anger and laughter. Join us for the official launch of an anthology dedicated to Birmingham’s Black poets - long overdueLiterature
