From Ellington Was Not A Street, a children’s book based on the “Mood Indigo” poem in *A Daughter’s Geography*. Illustrated by Kadir Nelson.<\/p><\/div>\n

Hi all,<\/p>\n

While you described your future projects, I suggested some books that might be helpful for you. \u00a0Given the library\/archive move, I’ve placed these books in a box in the Barnard Center For Research on Women (BCRW) for informal loan. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF MY BOOKS<\/strong>. Some of them I’ve had for 20+ years and others are just difficult to get. \u00a0Most of you might find Neal Lester’s\u00a0Ntozake Shange\u202f: A Critical Study of the Plays<\/em> useful. It is very thoroughly documented and the bibliography\/notes might lead you to some interesting primary sources. There are several books on Black Women’s Health and the Black Arts Movement. (FYI, I am also loading items in our group Zotero folder as I find things that are related to your project.)<\/p>\n
