Description
Don't Call Us Dead is a powerful and unflinching collection of poems that confronts the harsh realities of America's treatment of black men. Danez Smith's vivid language brings to life a world where suspicion, violence, and grief are forgotten, replaced by safety, love, and longevity.
The poems in this book turn to desire, mortality, and the dangers experienced in body and blood, including an HIV-positive diagnosis. With unflinching honesty, Smith explores the fragility of human life and the need for rebirth and renewal.
