"The Revolution Will Not be Televised. From novel excerpts to rap and hip hop lyrics to poetry to audio accompaniment, it's all here. This anthology is amazing, literally drawing from every facet of the African American written word. It includes anonymous slave songs; it includes the big names in contemporary literature; it includes everything in between. Common themes are explored throughout, sometimes overtly and sometimes implicitly. Despite the all-encompassing nature of the volume, common threads definitely run throughout. We know Norton is the best. This is why. The only drawback is that, of course, as soon as it went to print it became a piece of history in an ever-evolving body of material. But that's a problem inherent in every anthology that is not time-period specific, I suppose."
"I haven't read the entire thing, cover to cover. From what I've gleaned in my Harlem Renaissance class, this is a collection of beautiful excerpts from a fascinating body of literature."
"I think I stole this from Catherine when she lived with me. Along with this bridge we call home, this book could serve biblically as nightly reading."
