Title: Halal if You Hear Me
Series: The BreakBeat Poets, Vol. 3
Publisher: Haymarket Books, April 16, 2019
Pages: 224
Genre: Poetry
The collected poems dispel the notion that there is one correct way to be a Muslim by holding space for multiple, intersecting identities while celebrating and protecting those identities.
Halal If You Hear Me features poems by Safia Elhillo, Fatimah Asghar, Warsan Shire, Tarfia Faizullah, Angel Nafis, Beyza Ozer, and many others.
A beautiful collection. I don't read a lot of poetry, so reviewing it feels wildly out of my reach. Especially 3 months after finishing my read through. But considering I don't read a lot of poetry, I still really enjoyed these.
