Resum

This article examines the poetics of Concentrate (2022), Courtney Faye Taylor’s debutpoetry collection. Taylor’s experimental work centres the much-overlooked killing of Blackteenager Latasha Harlins in 1991. The purpose of this research is to dissect the intersectionsbetween anti-Blackness and gender. In the analysis, Black women and girls come to the foreas criminalised and disposable entities. Black women’s bodies are hypervisible and subjectto a violent reading that hollows them of any subjectivity. The poet becomes an archivistof memories in charge of memorialising the disappearing body, as writing the past appearsas an act of resistance.
