One of the great American art forms, African American poetry encompasses many kinds of verse: formal, experimental, vernacular, lyric, and protest. The anthology opens with moving testaments to the power of poetry as a means of self-assertion, as enslaved people voice their passionate resistance to slavery. This volume captures the power and beauty of this diverse tradition and its challenge to American poetry and culture. The volume also features biographies of each poet and notes that illuminate cultural references and allusions to historical events. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 Af Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 811.00808 Af Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 African Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 Af Lost 06/22/2023 Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 Af Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 Af Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 Af Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 Af Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 Af Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.00808 Af Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
