The beautiful continent of Africa is in crisis. In the wake of greedy corporations mining valuable natural resources, and through the exchange of rights to such resources, large regions of Africa are under a terrible reign of social injustice, with atrocities including ritualistic rape and murder, artificial war, induced famine, and extreme political corruption. In this anthology, African poets offer illuminating insight into a land and people known for generosity and warmth, as they bravely stand strong in the face of unthinkable tragedy.
