"Negro Poets and Their Poems" by Robert Thomas Kerlin is a poetry anthology published in 1923. This major collection emerged during the Harlem Renaissance, gathering works that explored the beauty and pain of Black life. Compiled by an educator and minister who intended it as a "defense of black people," the anthology features biographical information and photographs alongside carefully selected poems chosen for their quality and passion. The work became a valuable historical source documenting this transformative era in African American literature. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
