The 2017 South Dallas poets studied The Middle Passage; the transatlantic slave trade where Africans were stolen from Africa and transported to the Americas stacked in the belly of cargo ships. Through literary, media, visual and performing arts students learned about the ancestors' experience and created works that allowed them to empathize with the ancestors experience, cry about it, heal from it and develop voice and appreciation for our African ancestors' resilience. The collection of the works in this book are written by our middle and high school students in response to the capture, insurrection, resistance and death of millions of the Africans who were stolen from their homeland.
