"When Black people mourn, it is not only for the passing of loved ones. As a community, Black people will also be mourning the systemic inequalities, racial prejudices and oppressions we experience daily."The stories and poems in this anthology illuminate the unique ways loss affects the Black community, and the effects of the widespread lack of understanding of traditional rituals and beliefs. They show us how experiences of collective loss during the pandemic, the aftermath of the Grenfell Tower fire and ongoing systemic health inequalities are experienced not just as individuals but also as part of a global community. Contributors from a range of backgrounds, professions, and identities discuss the challenges of grieving under the shadow of continuing adversity, including threats of deportation. Sources of strength and healing are also explored, from personal and spiritual responses to community initiatives and activism.Poignant and inspiring, these are stories we all need to read, and provide us with insights into lives and losses which are all too often misunderstood and sidelined.

"In every drawing, lyrics, and line, there is a quiet and powerful declaration:I am here. I feel. I matter."This deeply nuanced collection is an honest and complex tapestry of experiences and insights from young Black people ranging from seven years old up to their early thirties. Each contribution offers a window into what is means to make sense of a world through identities that are often dismissed, harmed, or unseen.In exploring mental health beyond clinical terms, risk assessments and referral pathways, this collection seeks to start conversations that begin with presence and trust. Not only will it equip educators and professionals working with young Black people with a richer insight and understanding of how to deliver truly inclusive services, it will also encourage general readers such as parents and young people to engage from a place of empathetic curiosity, care, and cultural understanding. More importantly, this collection shines a light on young Black people who are ready and able to collaborate in creating systems of change.Expressed through a series of stories, short essays, poems, and illustrations, this anthology is not just about trauma and pain, but also about resilience, power, language, healing, and hope.
