I’m on “Alas, Poor Richard” rn and I might cry🥲. I’ve always had my opinions of Richard wright (specifically his political views) but learning about the intimacy of his and Baldwin’s relationship is very sentimental. I mean, after reading Native Son, I was hooked, Wright is a very gifted writer and I’m excited to read the other parts of this essay, to learn more about him through Baldwin’s eyes

I love Baldwin’s writing. He’s so explicit. Re-reading Princes and Powers I can’t even truly say he was taking a firm stance on the argument that the diaspora has nothing in common, culturally, besides oppression by the white man, he was really just questioning the other speakers’ points.
