What Shot Did You Ever Take (co-written with Brian Oliu)

"In this collaborative gut-punch of a poetry collection, Brian Oliu and Jason McCall tackle their homage to the Rocky movies from fresh and exciting angles, reflecting on the closely-held archetypes of heroes and villains, the impact of media on culture and childhood, boxing, Black experience in America, and the ways we seek out and reckon with our battered and glistening American dream. In alternating swings and hits, the two poets speak to a collective fan experience through the personal. This is a collection that will leave you breathless on the floor. "
