About the Author

The Muntu Poets first arrived on the cultural and political scene of the turbulent mid '60s to the early '70s in the City of Cleveland, they have re-grouped over forty years later and are as relevant and provocative as ever. Their arrival on that scene was described in the introduction of Muntu Poets Anthology Volume 2: 47 Years Later with Russell Atkins - "They reflected the rage, dissent, and rebellious nature of the community during this time. The group consisted of several young members from every political stripe, from liberal to radical."
