Black Poetry

Linda speaks with E. Ethelbert Miller, editor of a new anthology called "In Search of Color Everywhere: A Collection of African-American Poetry." The anthology includes works by Maya Angelou, Langston Hughes, Alice Walker, and Rita Dove, among others. The book covers a wide range of topics - from race and identity, to basketball, jazz, and history. (Stewart, Tabori & Chang: 1996)
