My Journey Through the Harlem Renaissance
by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Basketball superstar, bestselling author, historian, and jazz expert, Kareem takes us into the soul of the Harlem Renaissance, meeting the musicians, athletes, writers, artists, actors, politicians, and others who were its architects. Learn how jazz was a major motivator and warm-up tool for him before basketball practice: listening to Sonny Rollins let him hit the gym floor with the music in his head and feet. Don't miss this first-rate, first-hand cultural history of Harlem, from the passionate personal perspective of a Renaissance figure in his own right.
Hardback.
