Reviews

On the Corner offers a fresh and bold interpretation of black intellectual life in the 1960s. By taking familiar individuals--Kenneth Clark, Amiri Baraka, and Romare Bearden--and casting them in new light, Matlin advances our understanding of how deeply intertwined conversations about race, identity, authenticity, the establishment, the grassroots, uplift, and masculinity happen to be.--Jonathan Scott Holloway, Author Of confronting The Veil: Abram Harris Jr., E. Franklin Frazier, And Ralph Bunche, 1919-1941
