Synopsis
Pocket Change Collective was born out of a need for space. Space to think. Space to connect. Space to be yourself. And this is your invitation to join us.
In Concrete Kids, playwright, musician, and educator Amyra León uses free verse to challenge us to dream beyond our circumstances -- and sometimes even despite them.
Pocket Change Collective is a series of small books with big ideas from today's leading activists and artists. In Concrete Kids, playwright, musician, and educator Amyra León employs her poetic mastery to tell us her story. Using her childhood experience of growing up in Harlem as a framework, León covers everything from the foster care system and police brutality to mourning and resilience. In her signature free verse style, she invites us all to dream with abandon and to understand how much of a privilege it is to dream at all.
