Indecency

Indecency

Indecency is boldly and meticulously crafted, perfectly capturing a raw edge. In these poems, Justin Phillip Reed experiments with language to explore inequity and injustice, critiquing and lamenting the culture of white supremacy and the dominant social order. Political and personal, tender, daring, and insightful, Reed unpacks his intimacies, using poetry as a weapon to confront masculinity, sexuality, exploitation, and the prison industrial complex, revealing the failures of the societal structures that confine us.
