Includes all of Charlotte Shyllon’s poems in one book, comprising all of the poems from the original Black in White anthology plus 16 from the other anthologies published to the end of October 2023, in an engaging new design.
The poems in this book are borne out of some of the author’s experiences and those of others she has been told about or observed. They are accompanied by high-quality black-and-white photographs and the author’s defining moments: equality, racism, Racial Discrimination, microaggression, Unconscious Bias, diversity, unlearn, inclusion, BAME, and people of Colour.
Charlotte is a senior business professional with nearly three decades’ experience working primarily in communications and business development. Following the killing of George Floyd in 2020, she wrote her first book of poems, Black in White, to share some of her experiences of racism in the corporate world. She then ran a poetry competition for four years to elicit other people’s stories about workplace and childhood racism.
In 2024, she set up The Transforming Words Foundation to expand this work and now uses her diversity and inclusion expertise to bring insight and illumination to these important issues. Charlotte is a British Sierra Leonean and is mum to two adult children.
