To Dr. Yakini Kemp, Dr. Emma Waters-Dawson, Dr. Leesther Thomas, and Nandi Riley who taught me how to love and teach English.

One of those started several years ago when I stumbled across a recording of Only Heaven, a set of songs for soprano by Ricky Ian Gordon to text of Langston Hughes. Intrigued – we sang Ricky’s Love, My Sweet Rain a few years ago. I adore the poetry of Langston Hughes and I fell madly in love with the music. It sang to me of optimism, of people living their lives unfettered by the restrictions of society.

  • Sneed-Rojas Hands That Hold
    Hands that Hold By Emilio Rojas and Pamela Sneed Commissioned by the Centre for Human Rights and the Arts Bard College, 2021 Let me sip your sap Through a sumac straw I am a vessel, Overflowing. Let me drink your blood of my blood, Your roots imbibe water from the ground Who owns this land? Who was here before us? Whose hands worked the fields, picked up the fruits? My arms, your branches, My torso, your trunk My lungs, your leaves Alveoli, A tree lives inside me, Upside down, I inhale oxygen, Exhale CO2 You inhale CO2 Exhale oxygen Beings in symbiosis Invisible rhythms, we’ve forgotten how to breathe into each other’s utterances, language became a thing of the mouth, And the vocal cords, And the body forgot its speech, when did we think ourselves different from the land from each other? then our mother? How much blood, sap, serum, suero, sweat has fed this soil? Whose hands, whose sweat, whose blood has dripped into this dirt, we try to call home? Even if we have been displaced to many times to count or carry, We are settlers in stolen territories How can anyone be illegal in looted land? What is the weight of the blood running through my veins, valves, and vacancies? Each drop a portal a place to be, The sweet locus of your origin Blood like sap traveling Through my body. I inhale oxygen, Exhale CO2 You inhale CO2 Exhale oxygen Am I drinking from the roots, or from the branches? Which way does your scarlet gown flow, the color of cardinals and martyrs, sweet rain and iron Our bodies swelling, made of water and matter.

  • 1 1 Introduction African American Writing Has Become an Integral Part of American Literature Over the Twentieth Century. Apparen
    1 Introduction African American writing has become an integral part of American literature over the twentieth century. Apparently, the world of African American women writers with their immensely rich culture and history had been neglected and undervalued by many people and literary critics. As Bell Hooks points out the “writing […] [has] been virtually the sole terrain of men” (30). The works of Langston Hughes or Ralph Ellison, African American male writers, were highly acknowledged and discussed for their depiction of the hard lives of African Americans. Yet it was a portrayal from a male perspective and for many years, it served as the only one the reader was exposed to because of the missing female viewpoint. Nevertheless, there has been a significant change in this phenomenon. Angels Carabi in an interview with Gloria Naylor notices the explosion of African American women’s writing in the last three decades caused by the Civil Rights and Women’s Movements in the roaring and rebellious late 1960s (Interview with Carabi 112-13). Female authors such as Toni Morrison, Alice Walker and Gloria Naylor represent this growing literary tradition. What these authors have in common is that they were among the first ones to describe in their novels the real world and harsh conditions of African American women. The women have been portrayed in various situations and roles that have been typical for the African American culture and society. Moreover, the writers have uncovered many taboos and social issues that had been blindly overlooked by American society. These authors, by writing about African the American women’s experience, have helped to open the eyes of many people and, more importantly, 1 prepared the ground for discussions about the rights, possibilities and the future of African American people.
