Even more notable, however, is when one of his more neglected short stories are anthologized for the first time. Fisher devotees will therefore be gratified to learn that two recent publications have each included a different Fisher short story, neither of which has been anthologized before.

Jean Toomer Cotton Song Evening Song Georgia Dusk Reapers Cotton Song Come, brother, come. Lets lift it; come now, hewit! roll away! Shackles fall upon the Judgment Day But lets not wait for it. God's body's got a soul, Bodies like to roll the soul, Cant blame God if we dont roll, Come, brother, roll, roll! Cotton bales are the fleecy way, Weary sinner's bare feet trod, Softly, softly to the throne of God, "We aint agwine t wait until th Judgment Day! Nassur; nassur, Hump. Eoho, eoho, roll away! We aint agwine to wait until th Judgment Day!" God's body's got a soul, Bodies like to roll the soul, Cant blame God if we dont roll, Come, brother, roll, roll! Evening Song Full moon rising on the waters of my heart, Lakes and moon and fires, Cloine tires, Holding her lips apart. Promises of slumber leaving shore to charm the moon, Miracle made vesper-keeps, Cloine sleeps, And I'll be sleeping soon. Cloine, curled like the sleepy waters whtere the moonwaves start, Radiant, resplendently she gleams

Collaborative Bibliographies in American Literature and Culture Studies Rationale The Collaborative Bibliographies were generated from discussion and query threads on T-AMLIT (the "Teaching the American Literatures" discussion list). All of the bibliographies are comprised of the initial query by a member of the discussion list, and subsequent responses to those queries. The responses come in all sizes, ranging from a single line with an author and title suggestion to several paragraphs. The Collaborative Bibliographies make no claim to comprehensiveness. The great advantage of these bibliographies is their origin from a community of teachers whose collective wisdom puts most of the text, author and title information into some kind of practical and personal context. Directions The Collaborative Bibliographies can be read in two ways: they can be read from the Bibliography (a straightforward listing of titles with links to the original postings), or as Threads (the sequential files of the entire thread, including the initial query and all the responses). Bibliographic information contained in the T-AMLIT threads has been enhanced and filled out by interns in Georgetown's Center for Electronic Projects in American Culture Studies If you would like to contribute to one of the Collaborative Bibliographies, make inquiry to Randy Bass, (Georgetown University): rbass@guvax.georgetown.edu.

95. Alain Locke - The Black Renaissance In Washington, DC Article, with bibliography, on this thinker's influence on the New Negro movement and the harlem renaissance. http://www.dclibrary.org/blkren/bios/lockea.html

Alain LeRoy Locke Alain Locke played an influential role in identifying, nurturing, and publishing the works of young black artists during the New Negro Movement. His philosophy served as a strong motivating force in keeping the energy and passion of the Movement at the forefront. Ernest Mason explains that Dictionary of Literary Biography p.313) Locke was one of the guiding forces of this new cultural and aesthetic vision. Alain LeRoy Locke was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as the only child of Pliny Ishmael Locke and Mary Hawkins Locke. He grew up in Philadelphia and attended Central High School and the Philadelphia School of Pedagogy. Locke entered Harvard in 1904 and graduated in 1907 with a distinguished academic record (magna cum laude), and became a member of Phi Beta Kappa. After graduating from Harvard, he studied for three years (1907- ) at Oxford University in England as the first black Rhodes Scholar. Upon his graduation from Oxford, he spent one year pursing advanced work in philosophy at the University of Berlin. Alain Locke began his career at Howard University in 1912 as an Assistant Professor of English and Philosophy. His tenure was briefly broken in

96. "Breaking Racial Barriers:African Americans In The Harmon Foundation Collection" One of the many white Americans who expressed interest in the achievements of black Americans during the harlem renaissance was real estate developer William E. Harmon. This collection of portraits and biographies is based on the works he amassed in the early part of the 20th century. http://www.npg.si.edu/exh/harmon/

The National Portrait Gallery January 31-September 14, 1997 George Washington Carver Marion Anderson Harry T. Burleigh W.E.B. Du Bois ... Exit One of the many white Americans who expressed his interest in the artistic achievements of black Americans during the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920's, was Caucasion real estate developer, William E. Harmon (1862-1928). In 1922 he established the Harmon Foundation in New York City to recognize African American achievements, not only in the fine arts but also in business, education, farming, literature, music, race relations, religious service and science. In 1944 the Harmon Foundation, then under the direction of Mary Beattie Brady, organized an exhibition "Portraits of Outstanding Americans of Negro Origin," with the express goal of reversing racial intolerance, ignorance and bigotry by illustrating the accomplishments of contemporary African Americans. Including twenty-three portraits created by both a black and a white artistLaura Wheeler Waring (1887-1948) and Betsy Graves Reyneau (1888-1964)the exhibition premiered at the Smithsonian Institution on May 2 and then travelled around the United States for the next ten years. Other portraits were added to the tour during that time. Following the Supreme Court's 1954 ruling abolishing legal segregation, the tour was discontinued on the Harmon Foundation's assumption that racial tolerance and understanding had been successfully attained. Although it is evident today that the foundation's exhibition did not eradicate racial fears and tension in America, it did successfully expose and improve the perception and recognition of African Americans' contribution to this nation.

James Weldon Johnson O Black and Unknown Bards Fifty Years, 1863-1913 The Creation The Glory of the Day Was in Her Face ... Lift Every Voice and Sing O Black and Unknown Bards O black and unknown bards of long ago, How came your lips to touch the sacred fire? How, in your darkness, did you come to know The power and beauty of the minstrels' lyre? Who first from midst his bonds lifted his eyes? Who first from out the still watch, lone and long, Feeling the ancient faith of prophets rise Within his dark-kept soul, burst into song? Heart of what slave poured out such melody As "Steal away to Jesus"? On its strains His spirit must have nightly floated free Though still about his hands he felt his chains. Who heard great "Jordan roll"? Whose starward eye Saw chariot "swing low"? And who was he That breathed that comforting, melodic sigh, "Nobody knows de trouble I see"? What merely living clod, what captive thing, Could up toward God through all its darkness grope, And find within its deadened heart to sing These songs of sorrow, love and faith, and hope?
