Book Review: YellowBlack: The First Twenty-One Years of a Poet's Life: A Memoir, by Haki R. Madhubuti. Chicago: Third World Press, 2005

Abstract

My own transformation came about as a direct result of being introduced to African (Black) ideas that did not insult my own personhood, but guided me, invigorated me, and lifted me beyond the white supremacist theories that confined me and my people to the toilets of other people's promise and progress.
