In fact, land, the precious non-multiplying life

I got so accustomed to waking up and posting a book a day during Black History Month that now I'm going through withdrawal on this first day of March so I thought I would post this classic by one of my favorite authors, the legendary Dr. Haki Madhubuti. Powerful book!
