Too Black, Too Strong is Benjamin Zephaniah's first new book of poems for five years, addressing the struggles of Black Britain more forcefully than all his previous books. It includes poems written while working with Michael Mansfield QC on the Stephen Lawrence case and other high profile poli-tical trials. Zephaniah is a poet who won't stay silent, who doesn't pull any punches, writing out of a sense of urgency and a commitment to social justice: 'The more I travel, the more I love Britain, and it is because I love the place that I fight for my rights here. It is probably one of the only places that could take an angry, illiterate, uneducated, ex-hustler, rebellious Rastafarian and give him the opportunity to represent his country.' Selected for World Book Day 2003 - England.
