Summary A four part video anthology of African American poetry with leading poets reading and discussing their own works. Part 1, Elders, introduces poets who laid the groundwork for today's Black poetry renaissance and mentored many of the younger voices represented in this series. These writers, many of whom began writing during the 1940s provided the wisdom and strong literary voice which brought Black verse to competence and maturity
