  Afghanistan. It's 2004. Farook and Samia broadcast live every day to the whole of Kabul, delivering ninety minutes of musical bliss: Britney, Backstreet Boys and Enrique Iglesias. But when their show starts to make waves, the two young friends must take on repressive forces to build a new Afghanistan.
  Inspired by the true story of Afghanistan's first youth music programme, Waleed Akhtar's play Kabul Goes Pop: Music Television Afghanistan explores a world following the US invasion that is complex, contradictory and shocking – all to a soundtrack of early noughties' pop.
  
  The play premiered at Brixton House, London, in 2022, directed by Anna Himali Howard, before touring the UK. It was presented with HighTide, in association with Mercury Theatre Colchester.

  This is a specially curated, abridged edition. The full, unabridged edition will be available soon. 
  In a world where we can feel so disconnected, bogged down by the motions and minutes that steal dreams and tuck the self out of sight, Muses and Muscle Memory: The Audio Experience invites you to sneak away and reconnect. There are moments — beautiful, chaotic, and in-between — that make us who we are; they're as ingrained as the bones beneath our skin. And there are muses — bursts or bodies — that inspire us to feel, to explore, to change, or to appreciate. But we need the space: to think, to remember, to create, or just to be. 
  Narrated by the author, Chris-Ann Miche, and sound designed by Joel Young, each poem pulls you into a vivid landscape of words, with sounds from everyday life, that ask you to sit, listen, breathe, and contemplate. 
  Touching on complicated themes like memory, grief, desire, love, fear, freedom, and more, Chris-Ann comes out of intellectual hiding to lead you through glimpses of her past and present, to give you a safe place to get lost, a secure place to feel, to linger in nostalgia, to explore longing and warmth, while considering what’s to come, away from the noise of the world. 
  In the words of RaeChelle-Faith Hamilton, "Chris-Ann truly has a gift. Her uncanny ability to pull you into her world, while evoking treasured moments from your own experiences, reflects empathy, and true craftsmanship. Her collection not only narrates her own life's questions, but beautifully and effectively reflects how we may also perceive the world, but are unable to find the words. Chris-Ann has not only found her voice but has managed to help us find our own.”

  Pullman examines themes of labor and love, using as its backdrop the history of the treatment of the Pullman car porters of the late 19th century. The poems and art pieces in this collection both reflect on and interact with cultural and historical sources, from the slave narratives of Harriet Jacobs to the creative output of the poet and artist' s late father, a musician and songwriter for Aretha Franklin. With urgency, and without apology, Pullman underscores the relationships between the events of our American past and of our present.

  The 61 poems in White Terror Black Trauma concentrate on some of the most traumatic events in Black history from colonial to contemporary times, from the arrival of enslaved Africans in 1619 to Black revolts, Civil War atrocities, incalculable lynchings, the Tulsa massacre, the brave sacrifices of Rosa Parks, the Freedom Riders, the heroes of school desegregation, the murders of Emmet Till, Dr. King, Fred Hampton, Malcolm X, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, George Floyd, Breanna Taylor, Eric Garner, and Tyre Nichols. And so many other Black tragedies.  
   
   
  Each poem here carries a brief head note identifying the person, place, time, or event that addresses the historical context of the poem. Some poems are written in a his/her recollection of the historical event. Above all, each poem highlights the topography of Black trauma, be that a Civil War fort, a lynching tree, a prison, a school, an island, a ghetto, a river, a national monument, a church, or city street. These resistance poems are chronicles, laments, petitions, heroic recollections about racial attacks on Black people in America.
