The Black Power Movement
"The collection of materials reproduced in this microfilm edition documents Baraka's odyssey from the Black Arts movement to Black Power and beyond, offering an important inside view of the dynamics of the mass movements for black liberation in the late twentieth century. The collection covers Baraka's career from his involvement in the Black Arts movement in the mid-1960's through Baraka's nationalist and Marxist periods.

The documents span from 1960 to 1988, and are arranged into sixteen series."--Page x, xi.

Margaret Walker (1915-1998) began her writing career as a poet in the late 1930s. But she was cast into the limelight in 1966 when her novel Jubilee was published to wide critical and commercial acclaim.

"Like many activists in our tradition, Simanga has been lovingly mentored. His history of street organizing and membership in Black organizations have placed him in the unique position of having an answer: we are fighting for our humanity, to be whole, to be who we are in concert with the rest of humanity without the necessity to yield the parts of us that others find offensive because of the narrative created to diminish us and justify our exploitation. This book is carefully and strategically wrapped throughout in well-thought out essays, poems, personal thoughts, and lessons for the reader looking for more... a critical document that demands that readers think, rethink, and continue to re...
