Poems from the Black in White Poetry Competition 2022.
A compilation of poems about racism in the workplace and childhood, including winning entries from the second Black in White Poetry Competition.
This rebranded version of Black in White Community Collection Volume 2 features the same powerful poems, now accompanied by an engaging new cover design.
Like its predecessor, this book is dedicated to all who see and value the benefits of equality, diversity, and inclusion, and who labour actively in whatever capacity within this field to help open the minds of those who are the reason why these poems have been written…
“As I read the poems, I was moved, more than I ever expected, and then made angry, disgusted, and frustrated that individuals are still being denied fair opportunities, are attacked, and are made to feel less and be devalued. I was also inspired and felt the beauty of the poems.
Avril Lee, Chair of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations Diversity and Inclusion Network
“I was so genuinely impressed by the quality of entries. I was impressed, too, by the diversity of voice, style, and lived experience. There was an abundance of passion, mainly, I believe, due to the addition of the ‘childhood racism’ category. The entries… were evocative and profound.
Serena Malcolm, judge, Black in White Poetry Competition 2022
