#IstantaneeDalPassato | #FlashbackFriday:Amiri Baraka e Maya Angelou; Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, 1991.Foto: Chester Higgins, Jr.«As I watched, Amiri Baraka asked Maya Angelou to dance and walked her to the “I’ve Known Rivers” Cosmogram — the focal point of the celebration, newly set into the floor over the ashes of Langston Hughes. As the two poets danced, the energy of the crowd focused on them. The room came alive as everyone applauded.In this impromptu tribute to Langston Hughes, I believe these two African-American icons created a moment that reflected our collective love for poets of African descent and the continuity of African creative genius.» (A Dance of Rivers, Chester Higgins, Jr.) -- source link
