Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The relationship between the City of Brotherly Love and its Black residents has been complicated from the citys founding through the present day. A Black Philadelphia Reader traces this complex history in the words of Black writers who were native to, lived in, or had significant connections to the city. Featuring the works of famous authorsincluding W. E. B. Du Bois, Harriet Jacobs, Sonia Sanchez and John Edgar Widemanalongside lesser-known voices, this reader is an immersive and enriching composite portrait of the Black experience in Philadelphia. Through fiction and nonfiction, poetry and prose, readers witness episodes of racial prejudice and gender inequality in areas like public health, housing, education, policing, criminal justice, and public transportation. And yet amid these myriad challenges, the writers convey an enduring faith, a love of family and community, and a hope that Philadelphia will fulfill its promises to its Black citizens.Thoughtfully introduced and accompanied by notes that contextualize the works and aid readers comprehension, this book will appeal to a wide audience of Philadelphians and other readers interested in American, African American, and urban studies. "A collection of historical and literary depictions of Philadelphia by Black native Philadelphians and those with a significant link to the city"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
