- An empathetic and authentic examination of personal and societal grief
- A call to action and a testament to the strength of community
- An exploration of the healing power of expression, acknowledgement, and mutual understanding
- Beautiful illustrations by Diana Ejaita to accompany the raw emotion of each poem
I am The Rage serves as a mirror reflecting the shared truth of racial disparity, and a window into the lived experiences of those impacted by it.
