About the Book

Poetically written Spoken Word that speaks and appeals to the mindset of the Post-Maafa (Black Hellacaust) Afrikan. The author constructively identifies problems in such a skillful way that the embedded solution is revealed. This is the level of Poetically constructed Spoken Word that was instrumental in ushering in the Renaissance of Poetry experienced in the mid 1990s in which the consciousness of the Post-Maafa Afrikan was being raised to the 'WE' degree away from the 'it's all about me' or the 'I' degree. The Title 'ENDANGERED SPEECHES' was chosen because it is the type of work that is in danger of becoming extinct, it is not a comfortable read but it is comforting to those willing to confront truth, it is also the type of work that places the authors of such work on someone's endangered list because those who are confronted by truth but are not willing to be often desire to 'kill the messenger' figuratively and for our Spoken Word warriors who spoke truth to Power such as Malcolm, Lumumba, King and others all too literally. ENDANGERED SPEECHES is a read that goes beneath the surface of politically correct speeches and touches the reader at the core of consciousness, the work is encouraging, uplifting, chastising, and insightful, enjoy your copy of this great work.
About the Author: Rudwaan is a native of Trinidad and Tobago now living in America. Always the voracious thinker who thinks not outside the box but thinks as if there is no box because truly the mind is free even if the body may be confined. Transplanting from Tobago in the early 1970s to America I immediately saw a distinct difference in the reality of the Afrikan being, it was a radical distortion that when applied to my manner of channeling thoughts created an insight into patterns of behavior that were as distinct as the realities themselves. Writing became a way of unburdening myself with the observance of these behavior patterns, but not with the responsibility to act. After moving to Atlanta in the early 1990s I was introduced to the performance of the Spoken Word, this is when my writing took on a new purpose, now I would write not only to unburden myself but to share with others in a collaborative atmosphere. Now instead of writing and discarding I would write and save, what you will read in this first published work is some of those works I wrote and saved.
