Haki Madhubuti's new memoir

There's a feature/review in the Chicago Sun Times of Haki Madhubuti's new memoir (which I'm reppin). The reviewer was "mezmorized not only by Madhubuti's prose, but by his raw honesty." She then goes on to say that YellowBlack is, "destined to become a classic in the tradition of Richard Wright's Black Boy."

You don't hear a reviewer say they were mezmorized too often. And comparisons to Black Boy. That's big.

i've been reading 'black boy' for class... i think i'd be more interested in "yellowblack." i love haki. like, seriously.

can you *only* get a copy from third world, or does amazon or some other online retailer sell it?

Dude, spam is a punk b*atch..

Anyway, Haki is the man. I'm a big memoir fan.

Cencom.org just had a cool free memoir workshop here in the city.
