To celebrate our first birthday we produced an anthology of word by 31 rebels.
‘Rebel Poetry is where exhaustion bleeds into rebellion, and you find anger at the center, tracing and galloping through these poets’ works. Poems such as “Mexico In Dependence” and “The Persistence of The Thirst” take on a new, louder meaning in this anthology, made up of thirty-one rebels. In each examination of authority and defiance of said authority, is a personal awe as systems of power become grievous.’
—Jude Armstrong, author of An Alive Boy
