Jason: “I work at an acting studio and am reading this book because we’re creating a new program. It’s centered on the Black Arts movement which started at the end of the Civil Rights movement and was built on the idea of creating a national identity of blackness. LeRoi Jones was one of the first voices of that movement. He wrote plays and essays that were considered radical because he spoke against integrating into mainstream white culture. I’m excited to bring this movement back. We’re partnering with the Billie Holiday Theater in Bed-Stuy. I’m enlisting actors, faculty, and am building a curriculum. This is a whole possibility to create empowerment for Black acting students. It’s something I wish I had experienced in my acting days. You work with all the great white writers, but not with James Baldwin or Zora Neale Hurston. I hope our program takes off like a Shakespeare intensive would.” @kindofgray #TheBaptismAndTheToilet #LeRoiJones / @theubc for #subwaybookreview #newyork 🗽 (at F Train)

I grew up knowing him as LeRoi Jones In later years, he would transition to Amiri Baraka. People talk about being woke. If you havent read his works, you're not woke. https://www.instagram.com/p/B7HteQsH7rU/?igshid=qd95fq6awfj6
