Authored by a diverse range of esteemed authors, including W. E. B. Du Bois, Jean Toomer, Toni Tipton-Martin, and others, the book culminates in a candid and insightful roundtable discussion, featuring renowned Black artists, writers, and scholars, such as Theaster Gates, Kiese Laymon, Carrie Mae Weems, and others.
