FYI:

The July issue of ChickenBones: A Journal (www.nathanielturner.com
<http://www.nathanielturner.com/> ) has been published. The journal provides
direction and instruction in further developing African-American literary
arts.  The award winning neo-griot, Kalamu ya Salaam has made the Journal
his literary home. A permanent resource for poets and writers, students and
teachers, the journal includes his Art for Life, essays on poetry writing,
the history of the Black Arts Movement, and poems from his new manuscript
"Nia: Haiku, Sonnets, and Sun Songs." In addition, interviews with Kalamu ya
Salaam provide an inside view of his approach to writing as well as his
perspective on a number of issues pertinent to the progressive development
of the black communities of the USA.

The July issue also includes an interview with the Pulitzer Prize winning
poet Yusef Komunyakaa.  In a personal essay entitled
"A Poetic Journey with Writers in New Orleans," the journal contains
articles on Tom Dent, poet and co-founder of the Free Southern Theater.
