Movement in Black by Pat Parker

3.0

While searching on the internet for black authors and black poetry I came across a poem entitled...Movement in Black. I read the poem and then listened to it read aloud. I really liked the poem. I decided to purchase the book. Although I didn't like a lot of the poems that she wrote or I just simply couldn't relate to them some of them I could. For those readers who don't know Pat Parker, she was an African-American lesbian, feminist, poet and activist. Pat Parker participated in political activism and had early involvement with the Black Panther Party, Black Women's Revolutionary Council and formed the Women's Press Collective. She died in 1989 at the age of 45 from breast cancer.
