These are the poems and prose of a man who respects and loves ALL of humanity, a Black man fighting & singing his way through racism in white America & Europe; poems of loneliness, love & ecstasy, of rage against racism in America & Germany & England, of life & death, of apostasy and redemption, of youth & striving to grow old gracefully, serious & funny, always socially-consciousness-raising; elegies in Korea, and love-seeking worldwide, writings as varied as his lives as poet, actor, boxer, opera singer, R 'n B, Jazz, Blues and Folk singer, composer, teacher.
'My love for the country of my birth, America, is colored with praise & criticism and hope - criticism because I know we can do better, praise & hope because with the upcoming elections, America stands at the crossroads of history: a chance to take another "giant step" - Do we have the will and courage to do it? I fervently hope so! I am a Soultraveler standing up for justice and human dignity, who firmly believes that we all came from the same place and we are all going back to the same place, so why not give a helping hand to one another as we all struggle through this astonishing - and - tortuous adventure we call LIFE?!'
