Hello all-

I feel honored to be a part of this incredibly moving project. Please click the link below to read the poem, & find more info on the project.

Lament for the Dead is an online community poetry project which will mark the death of every person killed by police this summer, and every police officer who loses life in the line of duty, with a poem.

The first lie that hate tells us is that any other person is not as human as we are. This project resists that lie by recognizing each other’s humanity, even in the most difficult places.
