Black Love: Has Slavery Really Stopped? Poems by Thomas Ayim


"This is an amazing read. More than ever, we all feel trapped by the pandemic, and this gives us some help to free ourselves. Well worth a read..." ― Azik Chowdhury, Author of The Refugee



"In just one word... "POWERFUL" Thomas has written some very inspirational and motivational poems within the pages of this book. Phenomenal is another word! You will definitely reach the stars! Keep shining through!" ― Asha Gonzalez, Author of The Rookie


Emancipate yourself from mental slavery; none but ourselves can free our minds.

Black love is not only a reflective collection of poetry but also, a life Walkman ― as poetickofi has carefully sandwiched it with thrilling paintings and photography by some of the most talented African American artists in the world.

It is split into seven chapters, each of which gives you an opportunity to crawl, walk, run and eventually fly your way out of loneliness, loss, depression, trauma, heartbreak, abuse and slavery while reminding you about how unique and amazing you’re.

sacrifices, fate and hope are what it restores as it opens its flood gate of endless and refreshing love amidst the fight for mental health and the fight against racism.



About the Author

Thomas Ayim is a young Ghanaian writer and poet who has mad love for art. He is a painter of emotions and a sculptor of thought-provoking verses about life.


Unfortunately, poetry married him at a very tender age; evidence being his poetic footprints that give comfort to any soil he steps on ― hence the title; poetickofi.

His dream is to encourage more people; especially teenagers, to pen down their emotions through poems in order to lick off pain, worry, anger, lust, depression, loss and trauma so as to make out love to live.

Black love is Thomas's debut published collection of poetry. To be updated with more of the author's work, please visit his social media handle: @iampoetickofi across all platforms.

Complex Mental Health: The Benefits Of Social Prescribing by Dr. Nàdia Correia

Mental health is like a journey with many winding roads. Like any voyage, its terrain can be difficult to navigate, and it’s full of unexpected turns, bumps along the way, and moments of clarity. Despite the abundance of research and resources devoted to mental health, it is often still ignored or even stigmatized.

Through the lens of social prescribing, readers will learn how evidence-based strategies are being used to better support
