520    $a "In Revolutionary Poetics, Sarah RudeWalker details the specific ways that the Black Arts Movement achieved its revolutionary goals through rhetorical poetics-in what forms, to what audiences, and to what effect. BAM has had far-reaching influence, particularly in developments in positive conceptions of Blackness, in the valorization of language and its subsequent effects on educational policy, in establishing a legacy of populist dissemination of African American vernacular culture, and in setting the groundwork for important considerations of the aesthetic intersections of race with gender and sexuality. These legacies stand as the movement's primary-and largely unacknowledged-successes, and they provide significant lessons for navigating our current political moment. RudeWalker presents rhetorical readings of the work of BAM poets (including, among others, Toni Cade Bambara, Amiri Baraka, Gwendolyn Brooks, Margaret Burroughs, Jayne Cortez, Sarah Fabio, Nikki Giovanni, Ted Joans, Maulana Karenga, Etheridge Knight, Haki Madhubuti, Clarence Major, Larry Neal, Carolyn Rodgers, and Sonia Sanchez) in order to demonstrate the various strands of rhetorical influence the Black Arts project and the significant legacies these writers left behind. Her investigation of the rhetorical contributions of these writers allows her to deal realistically with the movement's problematic aspects, while still devoting thoughtful scholarly attention to the successful legacy of BAM writers and the ways their work can continue to shape contemporary rhetorical activism"-- $c Provided by publisher.
