"It’s always Langston Hughes, “great American poet,” but I was looking through the work of someone who at the time he was writing it was younger than I am now. That really mesmerized me. How was this...teenager, already seeing his country and his people’s position in it.." 📖

I enjoyed chatting with poet @Danez_Smif . Their "Bluff" is out from @GraywolfPress and their curation of Langston Hughes poems, "Blues in Stereo," is out next week from @legacylitbooks startribune.com/minneapolis-da…

Congrats to Ron Stallworth on the release of his new book, THE GANGS OF ZION, published by @legacylitbooks and @HachetteUS Ron is widely known for his best-selling BLACK KLANSMAN, which Spike Lee made into a film. GANGS OF ZION has the same cinematic qualities as BLACK KLANSMAN.
