Description:

This comprehensive analysis of the life and work of Haki R. Madhubuti demonstrates why he is such a pivotal figure in black literature. Both his life experiences and literary contributions are explored, highlighting his roles as political activist, writer, educator, and husband. A concise yet thorough examination of an oft-overlooked period of black literary history is also included. This discussion argues that Madhubuti--more than most of his contemporaries--successfully transformed from poet-activist to modern-day visionary and continues to challenge the status quo in pursuit of justice and peace.
