Reviews and notices of anthology
• "The Crisis" 77.6 (June-July 1970): 241.
"This book is a jewel box of human expressions, unpolished, unrefined, unrehearsed--voices of the young, recorded from words overheard or written in the black ghetto of Baltimore, Md. They sing of hope, of despair, are harsh, cry out in anguish, laugh, and mirror the spirit of the poor." [full text of notice]
