520 _aFirdos Ali's 40 Days is an unperformed play exploring the impact of state violence on Black and brown children. It examines the difficulties facing Black Muslim parents as they wrestle with how to protect their Black Muslim son, as well as preparing him for the hostile world they live in. On the morning following the Brexit vote, a British Black Muslim boy goes upstairs after seeing the results on TV, lies down on his bed, and never gets up again. 40 Days is published in Contemporary Plays by Black British Writers (Nick Hern Books, 2021). In an introduction to the play in that volume, Firdos Ali writes: 'I like to write in short bursts, so in 2017 I gave myself 40 days to write a new play. The 40 days coincided with the election period, so I chose to use the same timeline for the play and zoom in on the home of a Black, British Muslim family with a sick son
