Ghettos of the Mind : Kenneth B. Clark and the Psychology of the Urban Crisis -- Be Even Blacker : Amiri Baraka's Names and Places -- Harlem without Walls : Romare Bearden's Realism -- Epilogue.
In July 1964 when a Harlem riot shifted attention to the crisis in northern cities, African American intellectuals were thrust into the spotlight as interpreters of black urban life to white America. On the Corner revisits the moment when black urban life became, for these intellectuals, "the topic that is reserved for blacks."
