Redmond, and Askia Touré--with contemporary established writers in the tradition such as brian g. gilmore--to Ishmael Reed's \"younger generation\"--Karla Brundage, Allison E. Francis, Tongo Eisen-Martin, and C. Liegh McInnis. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDesigned as an open conversation between generations bridging hearts and minds across decades, \u003ci\u003eBlack Fire--This Time\u003c\/i\u003e's works are rooted in preservation, reverence, and discovery. Several little-known works are included for the first time. New works--from established writers as well as emerging talent--share this historic debut. \u003ci\u003eBlack Fire--This Time\u003c\/i\u003e also stands out for its inclusion of many voices that were underrepresented in previous anthologies, most notably \u003ci\u003eBlack Fire: An Anthology of Afro-American Writing \u003c\/i\u003e(1968) and its ancestor, \u003ci\u003eThe New Negro\u003c\/i\u003e (1925). The works of writers such as Nikki Giovanni and James Baldwin provide a more complete view of the myriad perspectives on Black identity and writing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kim McMillon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1737987678\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781737987673\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University Press of Mississippi\/Aquarius Pres\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 494\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.11d","brand":"Kim McMillon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946105798911,"sku":"9781737987673","price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_03539b32-e4ca-438c-b6f7-d5cb378389fa.jpg?v=1681511574","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/black-fire-this-time-kim-mcmillon-9781737987673","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
