Internet Research Guide Textbook Site for: The Heath Anthology of American Literature , Fifth Edition Amiri Baraka, born Everett LeRoy Jones to Coyt LeRoy and Anna Lois Jones in Newark, New Jersey, grew up in a middle-class environment. He attended a predominantly black elementary school, but his college-prep high school, from which he graduated with honors in 1951, was mainly white. About 1951, the first of his name changes occurred with the spelling of his middle name from LeRoy to LeRoi. From 1952 to 1954 he attended Howard University, where he studied with Sterling Brown and Nathan Scott. After he flunked out of school, he enlisted in the U.S. Air Force until 1957. These were years of intellectual commitment and poetry writing. In 1957, however, he was dishonorably discharged because of suspicions of communism and such suspicious activities as voracious reading, journal-keeping, poetry writing, and subscribing to avant-garde journals. Free to live the avant-garde life that had become his preference, Baraka moved to New Yorks Greenwich Village. Among his associates there were Charles Olson, Frank OHara, and Allen Ginsberg. In 1958 he married Hettie Cohn, a Jewish woman also much a part of the Beat scene, and together they edited

Established as an urban, lower middle-class family in Newark, New Jersey, Joness childhood and adolescence were relatively uneventful for an African-American youth. Still, during that time period, racism and overt discrimination were ubiquitous to anyone of color. Fortunately, Jones had the opportunity to attend Rutgers University on a science scholarship, which he later relinquished in lieu of transferring to Howard University in 1952. He also changed his name at this time to LeRoi Jones. In 1954, he enlisted in the U.S. Air Force without obtaining any educational degree. LeRoi Jones spent most of his enlisted time in Puerto Rico, where he began writing. It was during this time that he drew his conclusions about white oppression and the bourgeois politics controlling American society. He was dishonorably discharged from the Air Force in 1957 when a fellow soldier found his communist-sympathizing writings.

Extractions: encyclopedia 0.09 sec. write_ads(AdsNum, 0) US poet, dramatist, and militant black activist. One of the major black voices of his generation, he promoted black poetry and theatre, as well as producing volumes of poetry, novels, plays, and cultural analyses including Blues People (1963), a study of jazz. He began his literary career with personal and romantic poetry as in Preface to a Twenty Volume Suicide Note (1961), before turning to the theatre as a revolutionary force for black separatism in such plays as Dutchman and The Slave (both 1964). In 1965 he converted to Islam and changed his name, as part of his campaign for African-American consciousness. His ideological focus shifted in the 1970s, attacking capitalism as much as racism. His Selected Plays and Prose and Selected Poetry were both published 1979 and The Autobiography of LeRoi Jones appeared 1984.

Extractions: Hughes addresses the appropriation of black culture and the parallel stereotyping of African Americans by a white theatrical tradition. The poem speaks to the fact that, for approximately the first 150 years of American theatre, nearly all African-American characters were created by white playwrights and often performed by white actors in blackface. African-American playwrights did not have a voice in the popular theatre of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries nor did they have a legitimate venue for any works that they may have created. While several early African-American actors and playwrights found success in European theatres, those who remained in America were forced to conform to the expectations of white theatre audiences. Not until the latter half of the nineteenth century did African-American musical theatre movements begin to form. African-American minstrel troupes and writers started to create musicals that catered to African-American audiences that assembled in church halls, community centers, and small local theatres and auditoriums on the periphery of mainstream American theatre. With the Harlem Renaissance in New York City in the 1920s, the surge and prominence of African-American artistic talent paved the way for African-American playwrights to emerge on the Broadway and Off-Broadway scene in the middle of the twentieth century. The American stage finally saw fully realized African-American characters and powerful portrayals of African-American life.

Extractions: Born Everett LeRoi Jones in Newark, New Jersey his father was a postman and fork-lift operator. Jones studied philosophy and religion at Rutgers, Columbia, and Howard Universities, though he earned no degree. After these experiences, Jones joined the US Air Force for three years. An anonymous letter to his commanding officer accusing him of being a communist led to the discovery of Soviet agitprop, Jones was put on gardening duty and given a dishonorable discharge for violation of his oath of duty. From there, Jones came to New York's Greenwich Village in 1957. He began working in a record warehouse, which fueled his interest in Black music, and brought him into contact with writers such as Nat Hentoff, Martin Williams and Allen Ginsberg. The influences these individuals had on Jones' early career affected his Beat-era poetry. One year later he founded Totem Press. Jones also spent time in Fidel Castro's Cuba in the early 1960s. Jones married Hettie Cohen in 1960, a Jewish woman he had been working with while writing for Yugen magazine. By 1964, he had achieved some notoriety in the New York literary community. He wrote critically acclaimed off-Broadway plays, beginning with "The Dutchman" in 1964, followed by "The Slave" in 1965. In this era, Jones also recorded and performed with the free jazz group the New York Art Quartet.
