History

The Black Arts Movement

By James Edward Smethurst

About this book

James Edward Smethurst follows the Black Arts Movement across regions and forms, tracing how artists made connections among writing, performance, publishing, and political organizing. Local institutions and networks show how ideas moved and changed as people put them to work. The book offers a broader account than a focus on one city or a few prominent figures can provide.
