The Last Poets were born on May 19, 1968, at a birthday celebration for Malcolm X. The group of three poets and a drummer became the revolutionary voice for many African Americans, expressing the plight of black people in their music. Their influence spans many generations from flower children to Paul Simon and Public Enemy. In the nearly 50 poems collected here they advocate revolution through economic empowerment, self-love, personal growth, and spiritual kinship.
