About this edition
Poko Bout: stopped in mid-flight.
Poko bout, unfinished, echoes a feeling of being stopped in mid-flight that is not only individual but collective. Unfinished because so much was halted in its stride: the Haitian nation’s ambition of equality, the mobilizations against corruption, the advances of the Feminist struggle, a school year begun in one country and made to end in another, lives taken and lives never given the chance to begin.
