This review is from: In the Tradition: An Anthology of Young Black Writers (Paperback)

In the traditions is a good collection of poetry and short stories from african americans from the early 90's. Some of the writers included are even more known today for some of their other works since this collection was written.

Wow! Ten years have past and this collection can still hold its own! I can across it during a sociology class--it offers a vivid snapshot of a generation of thinkers. Many like Powell and Anderson-Thompkins have gone on to write books and articles about race.
