Review
"Baraka usually speaks as a Negro--and always as an American. He is eloquent, his is bold. He demands rights--not conditional favors." --New York Times Book Review "This is to date Baraka's most definitive, hence best work, on how it feels to be Black in a world dominated by white practicalities." --The Liberator
