"ashes of love and struggle"

Our second annual poetry anthology features contributions from fifteen queer and trans writers who are currently incarcerated. This collection of poems explores themes of Black resistance to the PIC, rock bottom and its aftermath, and the resilience that can be found from committing to love.



Profits from this anthology will go directly to the poets' commissary accounts to help offset costs for food, clothing, art supplies, gender-affirming items, legal fees, medical copays, and more while they are imprisoned.
