He gives one reason to live and believe and try, but also a longing to die, if perchance one might meet this man, in the truest sense of the word- a man, in the hereafter.

Incredible video, thank you.

He definitely is an inspiration for all of us who fight for social justice. :-)

James Baldwin had so much elegance and class despite his impeding societal dispositions. If I could meet James Baldwin today, I would like to thank him for being such an inspiration to not just the lgbt and black community, but all of the disinfranchised minorities out in the world.

Harlem Renaissance

[TheKoolKitteh]

@konbitkreyol Well, since the Harlem Renaissance spanned throughout the twenties and early thirties, and because Baldwin wasn't published until 1953, maybe it would be more accurate to say he was a child of the Renaissance. Being born in 1924, it's easy to understand how his writing style developed that particular (Though uniquely delicious) H.R. flavor.
