   Walkin' the Talk: An Anthology of African American Studies

   By Bill Lyne and Vernon Damani Johnson '79

    

   From the publisher: With a wide selection of literary, political, historical, and critical texts from the eighteenth century to the present, Walkin' the Talk provides a deep and multifaceted view of African American life and culture. Both the familiar and the sometimes neglected authors collected in this anthology create the richest possible context for the study of the experience of Africans in America. An ideal book for courses in African American Literature, History, Ethics of Race, and Black Studies.
