Imamu Amiri Baraka I WILL NOT "APOLOGIZE", I WILL NOT "RESIGN!" The recent dishonest, consciously distorted and insulting non- interpretation of my poem, "Somebody Blew Up America" Actually, in my focus on various forces of terror Afro Americans and other oppressed people of the world have suffered, slavery, colonialism, Imperialism, Neo neo- colonialism, National Oppression, the ADL disingenuously makes no mention of my probing into the creators of the holocaust, e.g., "who put the Jews in ovens, / and who helped them do it, / Who said "America First"/ and Ok'd the yellow stars", which of course is a reference to America's domestic fascists just before World War II and the Nazi Holocaust. Nor do these ADL purveyors of falsehood mention the poem's listing of some of the Jews across the world, oppressed, imprisoned, murdered by actual Anti- Semitic forces, open or disguised. The poem asks "Who killed Rosa Luxembourg, Liebnecht/ Who murdered the Rosenbergs/ And all the good people iced, tortured, assassinate, vanished". The ADL apparently is not outraged by McCarthy era frame-up and execution of the Rosenbergs, nor the assassination of German Jewish Communist leaders like Liebnecht, Luxembourg.

Quote: My writing reflects my own growth and expansion, and at the same time the society in which I have existed throughout this confrontation. Whether it is politics, music, literature, or the origins of language, there is always a historical and time/place/condition reference that will always try to explain why I was saying both how and for what (Baraka Reader, Preface). Poet, essayist, jazz critic, social critic, dramatist, orator, fiction writer and activist writer all describe the enormous accomplishments of Amiri Baraka, formerly LeRoi Jones, but none of these come close to describing the art and, more importantly, the life of Baraka. Baraka's poetry represents the evolution of a mind that has gone through radical changes in ideological influences, but even in these changes there has been a consistent linear development of discovery and rebellion. It is this development that makes Baraka the person, poet, and activist that he is. [ Click to Order the LeRoi Jones/Amiri Baraka Reader (soft $) ]

The Black Arts Movement was the creative companion to the Black Power Movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Like the first renaissance centered in Harlem, it was a time of explosive and energetic artistic expression. BEGINNINGS The revolutionary artwork of this era is rooted in the subtle and sublime work of Gwendolyn Brooks. Brooks broke ground as a gifted young novelist and poet. As a mature writer, she brought along young writers like Hakimahtabuti (Don Lee) and helped solidify African-American publishing efforts like Broadside Press and Third World Press. Sandy Adell (Professor of Afro-American Studies, University of Wisconsin) says Brooks was well suited to nurture the movement because of her literary and community. "She was a one of America's great poets, the first Black person to ever win the Pulitzer Prize." In addition to her literary strengths, Adell points out that Brooks’ leadership is also due to her being a ‘True role model and a genuine person."
