Amiri Baraka

1934-10-07 — 2014-01-09 · Newark

Amiri Baraka, born LeRoi Jones, was an influential American poet, playwright, essayist, activist, and musician. A central figure in the 1960s counterculture and the Black Arts movement, his work intensely addressed Black identity, racial oppression, politics, and American culture. It was characterized by visceral, politicized writing and the exploration of diverse artistic forms, including poetry, theater, and music.
