Writer James Baldwin was born on this date -- August 2 -- in 1924. He didn't appear in any of Jack Kerouac works, but I wrote about the connection between the two HERE and figured it was worth celebrating his birthday here on The Daily Beat.
Love Baldwin’s work. Absolutely no one (In this Caucasian man’s opinion) put the Black experience in America into such undeniably truthful words. “Another Country” should be issued to all white folks at birth. RM
