Three years later, he won a Eugene Saxton Fellowship, which enabled him to write full-time. After leaving the United States, Baldwin resided in France, as well as in Turkey. Baldwin's first novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain, was published in 1953, and received critical acclaim. Two years later, his first collection of essays, Notes of a Native Son, again won favorable critical acclaim. This was followed, in 1956, by the publication of his second novel, Giovanni's Room .

    Extractions: Baldwin, James Baldwin, James, , American author, b. New York City. He spent an impoverished boyhood in Harlem and at 14 became a preacher in the Fireside Pentecostal Church. His first two novels, Go Tell It on the Mountain (1953), reflecting his experience as a young preacher, and Giovanni's Room (1956), which dealt with his homosexuality, were written while he lived in Paris. He returned to the United States in 1957 and participated in the civil-rights movement, later returning to France where he lived for the remainder of his life. Another Country (1962), a bitter novel about sexual relations and racial tension, received critical acclaim, as did the publication of the perceptive essays in The Fire Next Time (1963). His eloquence and unsparing honesty made Baldwin one of the most influential authors of his time. Other works include the play Blues for Mr. Charlie (1964); a volume of short stories, Going to Meet the Man If Beale Street Could Talk (1974), the story of a young black couple victimized by the judicial system; and Just Above My Head (1979).

    Extractions: "Every legend, moreover, contains its residuum of truth, and the root function of language is to control the universe by describing it." Know from whence you came. If you know whence you came, there are absolutely no limitations to where you can go. James Baldwin "The price one pays for pursuing any profession, or calling, is an intimate knowledge of its ugly side." James Arthur Baldwin The world is before you, and you need not take it or leave it as it was before you came in. You write in order to change the world, knowing perfectly well that you probably can't, but also knowing that literature is indispensable to the world... The world changes according to the way people see it, and if you alter, even by a millimeter, the way ... people look at reality, then you can change it. Money, it turned out, was exactly like sex, you thought of nothing else if you didn't have it and thought of other things if you did.

49. James Baldwin's Foreward
    Foreward written by baldwin for A Lonely Rage, the autobiography of Bobby Seale.  
    http://www.bobbyseale.com/baldwin.htm
    
    Extractions: I'd kept my notes concerning Bobby Seale and Huey Newton and Eldridge Cleaver, so many years ago. It was, actually, only a little over ten years ago, but it seems much longer than that. Everyone was so young-except Eldridge, there was always something of a deacon about that one. Huey was the dedicated poet, and strategist. Bobby was the firebrand. I first met Huey in San Francisco, but don't remember meeting either Bobby or Eldridge then. My first recollection of Eldridge is in Hollywood, at the Beverly Hills Hotel; he was part of the Black Panther escort for Betty Shabazz. As for Bobby Seale, I first met him, if memory serves, with Marlon Brando, in Marlon's hotel suite, in Atlanta, the day of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s funeral. He had been sleeping, was still groggy-was as tense and quiet as the air becomes when a storm is about to break. This was certainly due, in part, to the climate of that momentous day, but it was also due to a kind of intelligence of anguish living behind Bobby's smoky eyes. The south was simply the hell which our parents had survived, and fled. Harlem was our rat and roach infested haven;

    American Prose Since 1945 Realism and Experimentation james baldwin. james baldwinand Ralph Ellison mirror the AfricanAmerican experience of the 1950s.  
    http://odur.let.rug.nl/~usa/LIT/baldwin.htm
    
    Extractions: FRtR Outlines American Literature American Prose Since 1945: Realism and Experimentation ... Authors James Baldwin Index James Baldwin and Ralph Ellison mirror the African-American experience of the 1950s. Their characters suffer from a lack of identity, rather than from over-ambition. Baldwin, the oldest of nine children born to a Harlem, New York, family, was the foster son of a minister. As a youth, Baldwin occasionally preached in the church. This experience helped shape the compelling, oral quality of Baldwin's prose, most clearly seen in his excellent essays, such as "Letter from a Region Of My Mind," from the collection The Fire Next Time (1963). In this, he argued movingly for an end to separation between the races. Baldwin's first novel, the autobiographical Go Tell It On the Mountain (1953), is probably his best known. It is the story of a 14-year-old youth who seeks self-knowledge and religious faith as he wrestles with issues of Christian conversion in a storefront church. Other important Baldwin works include Another Country (1962), a novel about racial issues and homosexuality, and
