Hanif Abdurraqib, Franny Choi, Peter Kahn, Dan “Sully” Sullivan, foreword by Tyehimba Jess
Respect the Mic compiles poetry written across two decades by students and alumni of a Chicago high school’s spoken-word club. The collection comes from a long-running school writing and poetry-slam project, and its poems vary in subject and voice. Black-and-white spot illustrations appear with the verses. The anthology gathers work from both current and former student participants.
