5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Reference,
By A Customer
This review is from: Afro-American Writing: An Anthology of Prose and Poetry (Paperback)
I too bought this book for a college lit course, but now that I am a teacher, I find that I use it far more than my Norton's Anthology, or any of my other African-American Anthologies. The historical information is written in factual, plain english, without criticism, liguistical studies or prejudice. I use it in my classroom and my high school students understand, comprehend and enjoy the pieces in this book. I highly recommend this book for anyone!

A comprehensive intro to African American literatures,
This review is from: Afro-American Writing: An Anthology of Prose and Poetry (Paperback)
I bought this book for an African-American literature class in college. I still today pull the book out to read passages. And I refer all my friends to it. It has a great collection of the prominent authors - e.g. Booker T. Washington, Frederick Douglass, Phillis Wheatley, W.E.B. Du Bois, Marcus Garvey, Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Gwendolyn Brooks, Ralph Ellison, Martin Luther King Jr., Amiri Baraka, Maya Angelou, Toni Morrison, Ishmael Reed, Toni Cade Bambara, Alice Walker, Audre Lorde, Etheridge Knight......and of course the list goes on and on! This is a must have book for every American Home! |
