The Poetry of Hafiz-e Shirazi
Even after all this time the sun never says to the earth, “you owe me.”
Look what happens with a love like that, it lights the whole sky.
-Hafiz, a Persian poet of the 1300s
Very little credible information is know about Hafiz’s life, particularly its early part. Immediately after his death, many stories, some of mythical proportions were woven around his life. Link
Scottsboro Alabama Book
Scottsboro, Alabama, which consists of 118 exceptionally powerful linoleum prints, provides a unique graphic history of one of the most infamous, racially-charged episodes in the annals of the American judicial system, and of the racial and class struggle of the time. Originally printed in Seattle in 1935, this hitherto unknown document, of which no other known copies exist, is presented here for the first time. It includes a foreword by Robin D.G. Kelley and an introduction by Andrew H. Lee. Mr. Lee discovered the book as part of a gift to the Tamiment Library by the family of Joe North, an important figure in the Communist Party-USA, and an editor at the seminal left-wing journal, the New Masses.
A true historical find and an excellent tool for teaching the case itself and the period which it so indelibly marked, this book allows us to see the Scottsboro case through a unique and highly provocative lens. Link
