Beschreibung

In Winter 2007, a full-time college student broke 7 years of writer's block by writing a new poem, generated while reading Martin Luther King's Letter from Birmingham Jail for English homework at City College of San Francisco's main campus library. His little poem led to filling a hardcover black notebook with a full rushing cascade of penned poetry. He named his notebook Crimson Stain. Oakland performance poet Dee Allen gives us Crimson Stain-a collection brimming with a plethora of divergent themes that re-ignited his long-lost passion for writing: Worldwide spread of blood diamonds from Africa, activism, real estate gentrification, homelessness, political prisoners, war, Islamophobia, dedication to a viceless life, love for underground culture, abuses from the police and much more.  Winter 2007, a full-time college student broke 7 years of writer's block by writing a new poem, generated while reading Martin Luther King's Letter from Birmingham Jail for English homework at City College of San Francisco's main campus library.
