Inhaltsangabe

James Baldwin's "The Fire Next Time" was one of the essential books of the sixties and one of the most galvanizing statements of the American civil rights movement. Now, in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, with a new generation confronting what Baldwin called a 'racial nightmare', acclaimed writer Randall Kenan asks: How far have we come? Combining elements of memoir and commentary, this homage is a piercing consideration of the times, and an impassioned call to transcend them.
