4.		I Am the Darker Brother: An Anthology of Modern Poems by African Americans from Simon Pulse Price: $2.20 Customer Review: My mother had a copy of this book in the early 80's and it was one I could not put down. During this time, teachers didn't share information about the "Black" experience. I believe this is a good read for young African Amercans. It will help them appreciate who they are and where they come from.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom
