Описание: Earnest Bracey is a man who loves music. He played his jazz trumpet at several venues in Japan, as well as at the One Step Down jazz club in Washington, D.C. He was a jazz trumpet soloist in the acclaimed Jazz Big Band at Jackson State University in the late 1970s, and his love for music has poured into his love of prose. Dark Labyrinth is a collection of poems about music and so much more. Many of Bracey's poems reference the power of the blues. Perhaps his most significant "blues poems" are "The Language of our Demise," "Ebola Blues," and "The Tall Black Man with One White Shoe." As a musician and African American history professor, Bracey's poems give poetic justice to the black experience in the United States. His collection provides snapshots of African American feelings in an imaginative way. His words celebrate the horror and beauty of America without sugarcoating anything. Some poems are derived from strict facts and harsh truths, but all carry a bluesy, musical sense of play.

Описание:
Frederick Douglass was a runaway slave who fled north and overcame incredible adversity and extreme hardships to become one of the greatest abolitionists of his time. Douglass, who was best known for his writings and oratorical career, was passionate about fighting the horrors of white supremacy and liberating former black slaves in the United States.
In this two-act play, Dr. Earnest Bracey, a professor of African American history, not only allows others to learn about American slavery and the universal truths of race and the humanity of all people, but also shares tantalizing facts about Douglass's celebrated life that highlight his best traits like self-control, dignity, and grace under pressure. Additionally, Bracey invites others into a world that emphasizes the contributions and accomplishments African Americans made in shaping our divisive culture while vividly describing how black people managed to survive their enslavement despite obstacles such as lynchings, Black Codes, Jim Crow laws, and legal segregation.
An Evening with Frederick Douglass provides a glimpse into the life of a much-admired orator and abolitionist who accomplished great feats during an ugly time in American history.
