About This Item
Black Dot, 2001. First edition, first printing. Very scarce in that it is the first publication of this controversial poem. Affectionately inscribed by Amiri Baraka to the poet Janine Pommy Vega and dated on the opening flyleaf. Once upon a time, Baraka came to an upper New York State prison to work with Janine Pommy Vega. Cover art by Emory Douglas. A very strong association copy. Very close to fine and bright stapled wraps
