THE HARLEM DANCER by: Claude McKay (1890-1948) PPLAUDING youths laughed with young prostitutes And watched her perfect, half-clothed body sway; Her voice was like the sound of blended flutes Blown by black players upon a picnic day. She sang and danced on gracefully and calm, The light gauze hanging loose about her form; To me she seemed a proudly-swaying palm Grown lovelier for passing through a storm. Upon her swarthy neck black, shiny curls Profusely fell; and, tossing coins in praise, The wine-flushed, bold-eyed boys, and even the girls, Devoured her with their eager, passionate gaze; But, looking at her falsely-smiling face I knew her self was not in that strange place.

POEMS OF CLAUDE McKAY "If We Must Die" If we must dielet it not be like hogs Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot, While round us bark the mad and hungry dogs, Making their mock at our accursed lot. If we must dieoh, let us nobly die, So that our precious blood may not be shed In vain; then even the monsters we defy Shall be constrained to honor us though dead! Oh, Kinsmen! We must meet the common foe; Though far outnumbered, let us show us brave, And for their thousand blows deal one deathblow! What though before us lies the open grave? Like men we'll face the murderous, cowardly pack, Pressed to the wall, dying, but fighting back! Used by permission of The Archives of Claude McKay, Carl Cowl, Administrator.

The editors of this collection believe that McKay has been unjustly ignored, partly because his multinational career does not fit neatly within the nationalist criteria used to construct African-American or Caribbean literary canons. Additionally, his multifaceted literary output over several decades does not fit within the narrow historical and cultural boundaries accorded such literary movements as the Harlem Renaissance. We believe that current cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural approaches would provide useful ways of rethinking McKay's life and work. Possible topics include McKay and Marxist theory, sexuality, travel, racial identity, science, or popular culture. We welcome a variety of critical approaches. Please

ChickenBones: A Journal Home Negro Catholic Writers (1900-1943): A Bio-Bibliography By Sister Mary Anthony Scally, R.S.M. Librarian, Mount St. Agnes College Baltimore Claude McKay One of the most distinguished poets of our time, Claude McKay (1890-1948) was born in Sunny Ville, Jamaica, British West Indies (15 September), the son of Thomas Francis and Ann Elizabeth (Edwards) McKay. By Jamaican standards, McKay's family was fairly well off having received land from the bride's and the groom's fathers. Claude was the last of eleven children born to Thomas and Ann (Hannah, in some texts) McKay. Before he left Jamaica in 1913, McKay published, just after he turned twenty, Songs of Jamaica and Constab Ballads . For seventeen months, laude McKay was a policeman. He seemed to have regretted later having been "an agent of colonial oppression in a most brutal manner." In both works McKay made extensive use of the Jamaican language known as a patois of English. he was the first Negro to receive the medal of the Institute of the Arts and Sciences. After McKay left Jamaica, he never returned. In 1913, McKay came to the United States and enrolled in Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute with the intent to study agriculture. During the year, he left Tuskegee and enrolled at Kansas State College where he remained until 1914. He then went to new York. From 1915 to 1918, McKay worked as a waiter and a porter. During this period he published his work in small literary magazines, such as The Seven Arts Magazine (1917), Pearson's (1918, then edited by Frank Harris), and

If we must die, let it not be like hogs, Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot, While round us bark the mad hungry dogs, Making their mock at our accursed lot. Idealism is like a castle in the air if it is not based on a solid foundation of social and political realism. Human dignity is more precious than prestige. If a man is not faithful to his own individuality, he cannot be loyal to anything.
