THIS is what a blackout looks like. 🎉🎉🎉👊🏿

I’ve been getting a lot of questions from my non-Black friends about how to be a better ally to Black people. I suggest unlearning and relearning through literature as just one good jumping off point, and have broken up my anti-racist reading list into sections:

8th BIRTHDAY SHOW - INCOMING! Mega bumper line-up - poets old and new unite! Thursday 11th June - 8pm - streaming on our Facebook page!

We have another Lockdown Limerick Challenge too - send in your “Memory” themed Limericks to our Facebook messenger by midnight Saturday 6th June. They’ll be streamed as part of the show, and the winner gets a chocolate orange in the post! 🧡🍊🧡

As well as getting your poetry fix, we’ll be showing the entries to this month’s Lockdown Limerick Challenge and announcing the winner! 🍊

Don’t forget! It’s our second online show tonight - join us on our Facebook page at 8:15pm for a hearty dose of poetry! facebook.com/rhymeswithoran…
