Truth spoken plainly and powerfully is difficult to dismiss and impossible to ignore. Edited with purpose by A. Gregory Frankson, AfriCANthology: Perspectives of Black Canadian Poets brings together some of Canada''s most influential dub, page, and spoken word poetic voices and gives them space to speak freely about their personal journeys in piercing verse and unapologetic prose.
Recorded for Posterity

Once published, it will serve as a chronicle of this remarkable moment in history , when Black people chose to record their histories of struggle, resistance and triumph in their own words.
