The Fire Next Time by James Baldwin
“Along with Letter from Birmingham City Jail by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., The Fire Next Time is a piece of writing that I try to reread every year. I come back to it not only for the beauty of Baldwin’s writing but because it grounds me both in the brutal facts of life in America and in what it will take for us to achieve liberation. You read it, and you want to do something.”
