| Publisher Description: What does it mean to be black? What does it mean to be African-American? What is the black experience? The spirited voices of twenty-six African-American poets speak to these and other questions in fifty collected poems that explore the African-American world. The rich words of this treasury rang out for the first time over twenty years ago, and will continue to shout their message for years to come. |
