The Black Body reviewed at Pamela’s Punch
November 20, 2009
From Pamela Sorenson’s wonderful review of the Black Body reading at Busboys and Poets on November 17, 2009:
… [Editor Meri Nana-Ama Danquah] reached out to friends, black, white, bi-racial. Many journalists felt their careers could be put in jeopardy if they answered this question in a published body of work. Other professionals thought there was no way they’d be quoted in black and white (so to speak). It could come back to bite them in the future. Those that did step up to the challenge include not only Kimball, but Hill Harper, Peter J. Harris, Kenneth Carroll, S. Pearl Sharp and many more, about 30 in total are heard from. Each one comes from a different background, race, religion, age, profession. Their words are honest, brutally honest, frank and open.
