Wake Up: A Poem By AFLO. the poet & Priss Nash

Black Lives Matter is a movement, not a moment.

Told from the perspective of two Black women, Wake Up fuses powerful spoken word poetry with unflinching glimpses of news clips and mobile phone footage. An impassioned and emotional journey through the peaks and troughs of hope and frustration that are felt when people finally start paying attention, only to lose focus once the hashtags have stopped trending.
