1965151182Cairo: self-published 1965. A collaborative work from the height of Cairo's Black American creative movement First edition first printing of this collaborative book of poetry about racialized violence in America inscribed by Hatch one of the co-authors on the front free endpaper: "To Jackie would you believe two volumes of verse Love you for supporting the unpopular arts Jim". This self-published volume was a collaboration between Camille Billops a Black American artist her partner James Hatch a White American poet and Ibrahim Ibn Ismail a Black American poet whom the couple met in Cairo at that time the epicenter of pan-African art and politics. Ibrahim Ibn Ismail travelled to Cairo in May 1964 to study at Al-Azhar which was established as a university in 1961. He was drawn to the city as a hub of creativity for black Muslims with "notable Black American intellectuals artists and activists from the United States and even African nations like Ghana relocating to Egypt during the 1960s" Alhassen. In the US Ismail had been involved with the Black Muslim Movement but chose to leave having "suffered mistreatment at the hands of officials and becoming disillusioned with the BMM" Alhassen. In 1964 fellow activist Malcom X visited the city where the two men swiftly became friends. While speaking in Cairo Malcom X "made the following observations about the city: 'Cairo is probably one of the best examples for the American Negro. You know if ever a people should know how to practice brotherhood it is the American Negro and it is the people of Egypt". This work includes the full text of Ismail's "Epitaph for Malcolm X". This book was the first artistic collaboration between the couple Hatch and Billops. Billops was an artist activist and filmmaker of Black diaspora who contributed the illustrations to this volume. Billops's first solo exhibition was shown in Cairo at the Gallerie Akhenaton the same year. Hatch who was granted a Fulbright appointment to teach at the High Cinema Institute in Cairo had moved to the city with Billops in 1961. On their return to America Hatch and Billops established their Soho home as a collaborative space for poets musicians academics and playwrights and together curated a significant archive of African American culture and art beginning in 1968 while both teaching at the City College of New York. Their collection is now housed at Emory University. The "Jackie" in the inscription may be the academic Jacqueline Bobo who had connections with Billops and thereby Hatch through her work on Black female filmmakers. Billops co-edited a special 'Black Film Issue' of Black American Literature Forum featuring contributions from William Greaves Bell Hooks Marlon Riggs and Bobo herself. In turn Bobo edited Black Women Film and Video Artists 1998 in which Billops's work features. Octavo. With 5 black and white illustrations in the text. Original brown paper wrappers titles to front cover in black. Joints firm but a little creased a few small marks to covers. An excellent copy.

The text embraces a wide geography investigating companies from coast to coast as well as the anglophone Caribbean and African-American companies touring Europe Australia and Africa. This history represents a catholicity of styles--from African ritual to European forms from amateur to professional and from political nationalism to integration. It covers nearly two and a half centuries of black performance and production with issues of gender class and race ever in attendance. The volume covers all aspects of performance including minstrel vaudeville cabaret acts musicals and opera. Shows by White playwrights that used black casts particularly in music and dance are included as are productions of western classics and a host of Shakespeare plays. The breadth and vitality of black theatre history from the individual performance to large-scale company productions from political nationalism to integration are conveyed in this volume." -- Publisher description.
