Return to Streets of Eternity brings together, for the first time, poems by Jan Carew one of the great Black intellectuals of our times, written during a lifetime of passionate engagement in anti-colonial, civil rights, black power and liberation movements, including many previously unpublished tributes to nineteenth and twentieth-century revolutionary leaders and to writers like Martin Carter, Dennis Brutus, Agostinho Neto, Andrew Salkey, Alejo Carpentier and Mumia Abu-Jamal.
