May 28, 2009 - Santa Barbara, CA: Sojourner Kincaid Rolle, Book Signing Of Black Street Poems at Chaucer's Book Store on May 28, 2009 in Santa Barbara, California. Black Street is an homage to luminarians in African-American history - to poets, singers and activists. Black Street is written in a language that is more common than courtly, more backyard than ballroom. It is in the vernacular voice of the Black community. (Photo by Rod Rolle)
