Some of Us Did Not Die : The Selected Essays of June Jordan

Poet and activist June Jordan wrote her way to the forefront of political analysis, witness and moral summoning for more than half a century.

These important new essays, along with work drawn from every phase of her prolific career, document her ongoing leadership and commitment in every conflicted sphere of our second millennium lives: the varieties of supremacist values and policies; the theft of democracy inside the United States; racial and gender inequality, and the arrogance that upholds all forms of justice.

In Some of Us Did Not Die, June Jordan calls us to a faithful position of outspoken resistance and hope.
