Description
-
Centerprise was founded in Hackney in 1971 by Glenn Thompson and Margaret Gosley. It was a bookshop and publishing project, but also included a coffee bar, adult education, and various youth groups. This pamphlet is a poetry anthology written by young people who met weekly at Centerprise, supported by youth worker Oliver Flavin, with illustrations by Doffy Weir. The young poets, including Hugh Boatswain and Sandra Agard, describe their lives in verse, focussing on education, racism and unemployment, but also the power of music.
