Book Synopsis Strange Fruit by : Kamau Brathwaite
Download or read book Strange Fruit written by Kamau Brathwaite. This book was released on 2016. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In its title, Strange Fruit refers to the song of a lynching made famous by Billie Holiday and to the malign persecution that drove Kamau Brathwaite from his New York home to resettlement in his native Barbados. But the title also points to the enigma of beauty created out of that experience of cultural lynching, in poems of urgency, elegance, wisdom and brave humour. ... It is a collection full of beauties of form, phrase and sound, such as in the poem “Sleep Widow” where instead of finding comfort, the poet and loved woman “bull-fight like lock-horm logga-head until the evening pools the grief along our edges/ and cools us to this peace”, the very sounds in the poem fighting their way towards resolution."--Back cover.

Book Synopsis Strange Fruit by : Kenan Malik
Download or read book Strange Fruit written by Kenan Malik. This book was released on 2009-04-16. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debates about race are back and they're only getting bigger. There has recently been a massive upsurge in scientific racial research. The US government has licensed a heart drug to be used only on African Americans. A genetic study claims that Jews are more intelligent because their history of financial occupations favored genes associated with cleverness. Malik argues that this rise in racial ideas is paradoxically due to the efforts of liberal anti-racism.
