Poems on the Underground have chosen over 30 poems to mark Black History Month this October.

The poems are being displayed as posters on London tube trains, where they will be seen by an estimated three million travellers every day. 

The National Poetry Library will be celebrating Black History Month with Poems on the Underground by sharing the posters on our social media and making print copies available to visitors to the library.

You can read the poems on the official website here and download a copy of the POTH Black History Month leaflet here.
