This stunningly personal document and extraordinary history of the turbulent '60s and early '70s displays James Baldwin's fury and despair more deeply than any of his other works.

In vivid detail he remembers the Harlem childhood that shaped his early consciousness, the later events that scored his heart with pain - the murders of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X, his sojourns in Europe and in Hollywood, and his return to the American South to confront a violent America face-to-face.

after watching "I am not your negro" I felt compelled to read this man's works. This is the first one that I've listened to I hope to purchase the actual paper books that he wrote in the coming days and weeks.

a moving ,Soul crushing ,inspiring work of art

This may be Baldwin’s most personal account. His understanding of The Black Panthers burns through the page. His portrait of the Brutal Life of a Black Man forced upon him in America.

This is the Voice that White Americans should be listening to. His Voice can make us feel and understand.

Five Stars.

Baldwin’s Electric Voice perfectly captured.

First: A great book. Baldwin’s analyses and arguments are/were compelling and cogent. And eerily prescient. Timeless, in large part.

And, Kevin Kenerly’s narration is extraordinary. Brilliant. Arresting! It amplifies and enlivens Baldwin’s prose. The tone, pitch and “warmth” of Kenerly’s voice is award-worthy! I could listen to him narrate anything.

Simply extraordinary.

Extraordinary! In every way.

This is one of those Audibles I will have to listen to multiple times to understand it's full meaning. Baldwin's genius seems incomparable to any intellectual I have seen recently (although I have not listened to many).

His thoughts and empathies seem almost schizophrenic, with all the fury and truth of Brother Malcolm, the unlying, striving hope of Dr. Martin, and the power of Huey, Hampton, and Seale, but mixed with a objective realism, and mostly from an almost detached perspective, that of a witness. It is hard to keep up, but this is on my part alone and not his. All of it makes sense, all of it shows his understanding of the complexity of the human psyche and the problem at hand. All of it is written with such eloquence it could be poetry. It is actually hard for me to even understand my feelings about this essay, leading to my only gripe being I wish it had been narrated by Baldwin himself. As this is impossible, I have no gripes.

Baldwin was a Genius

I actually found the audio book version, really captivating and even more powerful in revealing and discussing worldwide racism. Once again James Baldwin inspires each of us to look deep inside of ourselves.

Powerful Historical Narrative

This is a clear eyed and forceful reflection of the inherent violence, fear, and racism in western society with a focus on America in late 60s and early 70’s, a time of huge events ( Viet Nam, civil rights struggles, assassinations) which paved the road to where we are now. Very prescient as Baldwin looks back at the hard wired white supremacy embedded in the founding and development of “the land of opportunity” and the American Dream.

Impeccably written, extraordinarily presented! Mr. Baldwin never disappoints. This book should be required in every school system.

The GOAT! #JamesBaldwin

A beautifully powerful book about horrific truths that are painfully still true today. Baldwin writes with passion, pain and sarcastic humor which brings the reader through many emotions.

Passion and power
