Amiri Baraka (October 7, 1934 Newark-January 9, 2014 Newark) otherwise known as Everett LeRoi Jones, Baraka, Amiri, Imamu Amiri Baraka, LeRoy Jones, Imamu Baraka or LeRoi Jones was an American writer, poet, teacher, actor, author and playwright. His children are called Lisa Jones, Ras Baraka, Kellie Jones, Shani Baraka, Obalaji Baraka, Amiri Baraka Jr., Dominque DiPrima, Maria Jones and Ahi Baraka.
Baraka was a leading figure in the Black Arts Movement, a cultural and political movement that advocated for the independence and self-expression of black artists and writers. He was a prolific writer, producing poetry, essays, fiction, and plays that dealt with race, politics, sex, and spirituality. Some of his most famous works include the plays "Dutchman" and "The Slave," and the books "Blues People: Negro Music in White America" and "Black Magic: Collected Poetry 1961-1967."
Baraka's political views evolved throughout his life. He was initially a supporter of the integrationist civil rights movement, but became increasingly radicalized in the 1960s and embraced black nationalism and Marxism. In the 1970s, he helped found the Congress of African People, a socialist organization that advocated for black self-determination.
Baraka was also a controversial figure, often courting controversy with his outspoken views on race and politics. In 1965, he was arrested and beaten by police during the Watts riots in Los Angeles. In the 1980s, he was criticized for his anti-Semitic comments, which led to his removal from the poetry faculty at Rutgers University. Despite his detractors, Baraka remained a powerful and influential voice in American literature and politics until his death in 2014.
