The Race issue is out now and features some of the best poets in the UK, USA and throughout the world.
British black poets, Benjamin Zephaniah and Lemn Sissay share their views on race, racism and their poetic roots and have provided us with some excellent examples of their work.
And from across the Atlantic, we publish the work of beat legends Amiri Baraka and Diane di Prima as well as the artwork of acclaimed collagist Theodore A Harris
Virtually unheard of in the UK, Baraka has been a massive influence on black writers in the USA and has had to fight relentless attacks from the establishment, particularly in the wake of his post 9/11 poem Somebody Blew Up America.
Di Prima is an anarchist, a revolutionary and is the most important female beat poet. She has recently published a new updated version of her acclaimed collection, Revolutionary Letters.
