Three extraordinary and impassioned nonfiction works by Richard Wright, one of America's premier literary giants of the twentieth century, together in one volume, with an introduction by Cornel West."The time is ripe to return to [Wright's] vision and voice in the face of our contemporary catastrophes and hearken to his relentless commitment to freedom and justice for all." -- Cornel West (from the Introduction)Black Power: A Record of Reactions in a Land of Pathos is Richard Wright's chronicle of his trip to Africa's Gold Coast before it became the free nation of Ghana. It speaks eloquently of empowerment and possibility, freedom and hope, and resonates loudly to this day.The Color Curtain: A Report on the Bandung Conference is a vital piece arguing for the removal of the color barrier and remains one of the key commentaries on the question of race in the modern era. "Truth-telling will perhaps always be unpopular and suspect, but in The Color Curtain . . . Wright did not hesitate to tell the truth as he saw it" (Amritjit Singh, Ohio University).White Man, Listen! is a stirring assortment of Wright's essays on race, politics, and other social concerns close to his heart. It remains a work that "deserves to be read with utmost seriousness, for the attitude it expresses has an intrinsic importance in our times" (New York Times).
