Black Arts Movement
The Black Arts Movement, Black Aesthetics Movement or BAM is the artistic branch of the Black Power movement. It was started in Harlem by writer and activist Amiri Baraka.〔(The Black Arts Repertory Theatre/School )〕 ''Time'' magazine describes the Black Arts Movement as the "single most controversial movement in the history of African-American literature – possibly in American literature as a whole."〔''(A Brief Guide to the Black Arts Movement )'' poets.org〕 The Black Arts Repertory Theatre is a key institution of the Black Arts Movement.
==Overview==
The movement has been seen as one of the most important times in the African-American literature. It inspired black people to establish their own publishing houses, magazines, journals and art institutions. It led to the creation of African-American Studies programs within universities. The movement was triggered by the assassination of Malcolm X.〔(Kalamu ya Salaam, "The Influence of Malcolm X", Historical Background of the Black Arts Movement (BAM) - Part II, The Black Collegian. )〕 Among the well-known writers who were involved with the movement are Nikki Giovanni, Sonia Sanchez, Maya Angelou, Hoyt W. Fuller, and Rosa Guy.〔Cheryl Higashida, ''Black Internationalist Feminism: Women Writers of the Black Left, 1945-1995'', University of Illinois Press, 2011, pp. 52-53.〕〔Emmanuel S. Nelson, ''The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Multiethnic American Literature: A — C'', Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 2005, p. 387.〕 Although not strictly part of the Movement, other notable African-American writers such as novelists Toni Morrison and Ishmael Reed share some of its artistic and thematic concerns. Although Reed is neither a movement apologist nor advocate, he said:
I think what Black Arts did was inspire a whole lot of Black people to write. Moreover, there would be no multiculturalism movement without Black Arts. Latinos, Asian Americans, and others all say they began writing as a result of the example of the 1960s. Blacks gave the example that you don't have to assimilate. You could do your own thing, get into your own background, your own history, your own tradition and your own culture. I think the challenge is for cultural sovereignty and Black Arts struck a blow for that.〔(Black Arts Movement )〕
The Black Arts Movement can formally be compared to The Black Freedom Struggle / Women Suffrage Era. It compares because, artists were trying find different ways to let out their emotions and stress. The women of this Era were fighting for their rights, similar to those of The Black Arts Movement.
BAM influenced the world of literature with the portrayal of different ethnic voices. Before the movement, the literary canon lacked diversity, and the ability to express ideas from the point of view of racial and ethnic minorities, which was not valued by the mainstream at the time.
