some will not come
they won’t hear the drum
the cannon roars
the air is thin
the time is always now
marching believers know this
they are lacing their boots
uphill forward
there is no other way
never has been in the land of cotton
ten thousand feet eleven million dreams marching
uphill forward out of the ocean
trying to swim on dry land in diminishing potential
some will not hear the drum
but the battlefield is clear
there are no batons to pass
all hands are called for
the bell tolls
the stones have been thrown
the time is now

Black Think Tank Books and Black Bird Press form partnership to distribute the writings of Drs Nathan and Julia Hare
Black Bird Press Publisher Marvin X, Dr. Julia Hare, Dr. Nathan Hare and Attorney Amira Jackmon
Black Bird Press is now distributing Black Think Tank Books. BBP Publisher Marvin X says, “We are honored to enter a partnership with Black Think Tank Books to distribute the works of Drs. Julia and Nathan Hare. Your purchase of the Hare’s books will help Dr. Nathan Hare care for himself and his wife of 58 years, Dr. Julia Hare.” We’d like organizations and institutions to purchase bulk copies of Black Think Tank books. We will give a generous discount of 50% for orders of 50 copies or more. Usual discount is 40% for wholesale orders. We can negotiate an even better deal upon request. Institutions and organizations can retail the books for fundraisers. We call upon persons and organizations to sponsor 100 to 1000 books to be given away at Academy of da Corner, Juvenile Hall, Correctional Institutions, high schools, middle schools, churches and other religious centers, night clubs, bars and restaurants, barber and beauty shops, corner grocery stores and super markets. We know this will increase community literacy and appreciation of literature, raise the level of consciousness and perhaps decrease the violence, street violence and partner violence.
Mayor Libby Schaaf on Black Arts Movement books: “…Age-appropriate books for African American students about the Black Arts Movement will literally bring the lesson home for families to share and aspire to.” Dr. Nathan Hare was honored as the Father of Black Studies by Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf at the Laney College Black Arts Movement 50th Anniversary Celebration, February 7, 2014. photo Southpark Kenny Johnson
