DESCRIPTION:Born in San Francisco, Genny Lim, San Francisco Jazz Poet Laureate, earned 
 a BA and an MA from San Francisco State University.  The poems in KRA! 
 invoke history, myth, biography, political confrontations, and personal 
 experience. Lim writes about fellow writers, musicians, and radical 
 cultural activists Francisco X. Alarcon, James Baldwin, Amiri Baraka, Fred 
 Ho, and Alfonso Texidor. “Odes” are dedicated to the people of Black 
 Lives Matter, Standing Rock, and Flint, Michigan. In their lyric fiber, the 
 poems themselves struggle for the survival of cultures of mutual respect 
 and solidarity in the face of rapacious capitalism.\n\nWhen William 
 Crossman's War in America was printed by Arroyo-Sheldon Publishers in 1993, 
 its battle-cry poems became an instant “hit” radical pamphlet—sold at 
 human rights rallies and marches—and quickly disappeared as all copies of 
 the small press run were snapped up. This 25th anniversary edition has 
 those poems, some revised, and newer poems, and an excerpt from the 
 libretto of John Brown’s Truth, Crossman’s musical of récitatif, 
 improvised music, and dance.\n
