Excerpt from the Foreward by Ishmael Reed -
...This anthology is part of a literary underground railroad... In the 1920s, Zora Neale Hurston, Langston Hughes, and Sterling Brown sustained Black literature and orature. In the 1960s, it was the Watts Writers Workshop (1965-1973), Umbra Workshop (1964), Hoyt Fuller and Haki Madhubuti's OBAC (1967), and now The Scribes of Heru.
Thank you for sharing this moment in time with us.
By: Lester Chambers (Author), Thurman Watts (Author)
This story, through Lester’s lens, details the mercurial rise of the Chambers Brothers and Lester's decision to go it alone.
