POESÍA CLANDESTINA

This poetry chapbook was published in the context of THE FUZE, a six-week interdisciplinary art event at which Magnet's poems were presented both as an installation and as a performance.

Author's Statement: The poem "CONCURRENCIA. Der krankhafte Ehrgeiz" contains the English version of the N-word (ending in "a"). I wrote it in 2010. Today, however, I am convinced that it's not right to use the word as a white person, not even in an artistic examination. I apologize to the people I hurt by doing so. I am truly sorry.

Publisher's statement: On the page of the poem you will find an insert with a statement glued over the said term. The sale profits from the book will go to Each One Teach One (EOTO) e.V., a community-based education, and empowerment project for African, Afrodiasporic, and Black people in Germany.
