À propos de cet audio
Kenyan–American, master teacher of Dunham Technique, percussionist, and composer, Anindo Marshall, reads Langston Hughes seminal ode and witness to the history of humankind from the beginning of civilisation through the eyes of the Blacks experience. As Charlotte Stevenson wrote in the online magazine for York St John University, "Words Matter," (https://blog.yorksj.ac.uk/englishlit/black-history-month-ive-known-rivers-langston-hughes/)
"What Hughes stresses is the need for that ‘flow of human blood in human veins’, all of those voices who have remained in silence, to persevere in being heard no matter what it takes. That straightforward honesty is vital to the thoughts he shaped and put out into the world to make positive change."
The river represents a meaningful, traumatic, and hopeful reflection.
