“Ewuare Osayande’s workshops are rooted in history and fact, grounded in reality and truth. He is a powerful and dynamic speaker, and his words will linger in your head for days, weeks and – if you do the follow-up work that he recommends – the rest of your life.”

“Ewuare Osayande is a burning voice of dissent speaking to us all about the gravest human issues of our times. Lucid, provocative, brave and urgent, Osayande stays true to the poet’s calling: the search for truth and the unbending advocacy of life.”

“Black Lives Matter is a cry of defiance in the face of a system that has long denied Black life’s self-evident right to civil and human rights. It is a cry that seeks to crack the corroded indifference of the American mind as rusted and decrepit as the pipes that carry poisoned drinking water in Flint.”
