This anthology of poems pairs a poignant text with color woodcuts that make up a work which "perceives the essence of our confrontation with cruelty, and links it with a similar rhythm that runs through all of human experience." (Bayard Rustin) The collection of woodcuts and beautiful poetry, admirably evocative of each other, commemorate The American Negro Revolution which began in 1954.
