Reseña del editor:

The poetic expressions of Phyllis Wheatley, Arna Bontemps, Langston Hughes and Nikki Giovanni have been the voices of hope to a people scarred by slavery, Jim Crow, and a host of social-political movements designed to suffocate men. Poetry is flow of the street, the boisterous nuances of James Brown, Kool Herc, the Sugar Hill Gang, Tupac, Common and TI. It is the loud screams of pride, the dissatisfaction with the ills which plague society; the promise of a brighter tomorrow.

In the same vain, the poetic writings of r. warren goler eloquently speaks to African-American people, as did the voices of those before him. Urban Lullaby, carries the torch of the past and...runs. r. warren goler echoes the voices of freedom, black love, hope and religious thought.
