Spectrum In Black.
Poems By 20th Century Black Poets.
Cover by Robert Amft.

DLP, Scott, Foresman And Company 1971

This two-record album includes forty-nine poems by twenty-eight
20th century black poets. These poems were chosen from hundreds
of published and unpublished poems, many of which were presented
to classes on tape and discussed with students and teachers.

The poems included here were chosen to be recorded because they
represent a spectrum of modern, black, poetic expression in structure,
theme and emotional content. The protest, love, anger, personal incident, historical perspective, and portraiture inherent in these selections
offer insight into 20th century black literary America.

The forty-nine poems included on these records with explanatory notes
and suggestions, may be purchased in book form under title
SPECTRUM IN BLACK POETRY.
