Showcases brilliant and experimental work in African American poetry. Just prior to the Second World War, and even more explosively in the 1950s and 1960s, a far-reaching revolution in aesthetics and prosody by black poets ensued, some working independently and others in organized groups. Little of this new work was reflected in the anthologies and syllabi of college English courses of the period. Even during the 1970s, when African American literature began to receive substantial critical attention, the work of many experimental black poets continued to be neglected. Every Goodbye Ain’t Gone presents the groundbreaking work of many of these poets who carried on the innovative legacies of Melvin Tolson, Gwendolyn Brooks, and Robert Hayden. Whereas poetry by such key figures such as Amiri Baraka, Tolson, Jayne Cortez, Clarence Major, and June Jordan is represented, this anthology also elevates into view the work of less studied poets such as Russell Atkins, Jodi Braxton, David Henderson, Bob Kaufman, Stephen Jonas, and Elouise Loftin. Many of the poems collected in the volume are currently unavailable and some will appear in print here for the first time. Coeditors Aldon Lynn Nielsen and Lauri Ramey provide a critical introduction that situates the poems historically and highlights the ways such poetry has been obscured from view by recent critical and academic practices. The result is a record of experimentation, instigation, and innovation that links contemporary African American poetry to its black modernist roots and extends the terms of modern poetics into the future.
"They said he was crazy, but he was merely mad, angry at the racist insanity he saw around him in the South of the '60s. They arrested him for fire-bombing a segregated toilet and put him away in a mental hospital, aptly named 'Limbo.' Released ten years later, he goes home to the housing projects of South Central Los Angeles, where he witnesses an entirely different kind of insanity--a black-on-black cruelty even more destructive than what he had gone south to protest."--Publisher's note on back cover
Poetry and photography are universal languages spoken from the heart. When they converse together, the can flow like song. In this book, Heartstrings, you will meet siblings, a sister and brother who have joined forces to share their visions of life through their use of the lens and the pen. Although they live two thousand miles apart, they are able to combine their artistry in a way that brings their images and words together. Now this union has made it possible for you to make the journey as well, with beautiful and sometimes painful views into the world we live.
In Every Goodbye Ain't Gone Tori Maxwell is head-over-heels for Spencer McNeel, a bad boy trying to live the straight and narrow life. She consciously ignores the signs of Spencer's infidelity until she has no choice but to come face-to-face with proof of his betrayals. In despair she turns to Greyson Jarrett. Grey is everything that Tori should want in a man; attentive, attractive, and successful. However, Tori's unhealthy addiction to Spencer threatens to destroy any chance she and Grey have at the American dream of "happily ever after". When Tori is forced to choose between her obsessive love for Spencer, and Grey's devotion the consequences are deadly.
At the age of forty-eight, I thought my dreams were over. Depressed, physically ill and emotionally bruised, I had all but given up. I had no hope and felt destined to a life of misery and gloom. Then something happened, I began to hear a voice speak to me. Was I crazy? God doesn't speak to "ordinary" people, does he? Well, he was speaking to me. At first I didn't know what to think, what to do, but then He told me to look back over my life and tell Him what I saw. What I saw was not what I expected; what I saw was evidence of God's goodness throughout my life. That's when I began to thank and praise Him. From that day my life changed drastically, on every level, in every aspect. I began to look at life in a new way, a more positive way. The more positive I began to think, the more positive things started to occur in my life. Those conversations with God led to the writing of this book.
Tori Maxwell has an addiction that she can't control, his name is Spencer McNeel. His spirit runs through her veins and makes her hot to the touch. But the thin line between love and hate is crossed, when Tori witnesses Spencer's betrayal. She tries to say goodbye, but Spencer is not about to loose the only woman he's ever loved. And Tori has no idea how far he'll go.
