He's a master of the 100-word form." ~ GRANT FAULKNER, Executive Director of NaNoWriMo and Co-Founder of 100 Word Story "He's just that talented. To paraphrase Ethridge Knight: Making jazz swing in one hundred words AIN’T no square writer’s job." ~ RION AMILCAR SCOTT, award-winning author of Insurrections and The World Doesn't Require You "Ran Walker is a writer's writer." ~ MAURICE CARLOS RUFFIN, author of The Ones Who Don't Say They Love You and We Cast a Shadow A young boy wrestles with what it means to have long hair. A woman finds herself accepting a relationship she knows is not good for her. A generation of successful graduates places greater value on materialism than love. Aliens and more aliens. Mystery. Intrigue. Love (and love lost). And, yes, Blackness. All in one hundred 100-word stories. In Ran Walker’s latest collection of 100-word stories, he leaves few stones unturned as he pushes the limits of the form in engaging, surprising, and even humorous ways. Welcome to The Library of Afro Curiosities.

Book excerpt: In this Afrosurrealistic novel conjuring the energy of Keith Knight's WOKE and Donald Glover's ATLANTA, an unemployed cartoonist must pick up the pieces of his life after a failed marriage proposal, only to find that his world has become far more absurd than anything he could have ever imagined, let alone attempted to draw. Told in chapters composed of exactly 100 words each, Black Marker is a wild ride through the amusement park of Ran Walker's imagination, a ticket worth buying.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past fifty years, debates concerning race and college admissions have focused primarily on the policy of affirmative action at elite institutions of higher education. But a less well-known approach to affirmative action also emerged in the 1960s in response to urban unrest and Black and Latino political mobilization. The programs that emerged in response to community demands offered a more radical view of college access: admitting and supporting students who do not meet regular admissions requirements and come from families who are unable to afford college tuition, fees, and other expenses. While conventional views of affirmative action policies focus on the "identification" of high-achieving students of color to attend elite institutions of higher education, these programs represent a community-centered approach to affirmative action. This approach is based on a logic of developing scholars who can be supported at their local public institutions of higher education. In Developing Scholars, Domingo Morel explores the history and political factors that led to the creation of college access programs for students of color in the 1960s. Through a case study of an existing community-centered affirmative action program, Talent Development, Morel shows how protest, including violent protest, has been instrumental in the maintenance of college access programs. He also reveals that in response to the college expansion efforts of the 1960s, hidden forms of restriction emerged that have significantly impacted students of color. Developing Scholars argues that the origin, history, and purpose of these programs reveal gaps in our understanding of college access expansion in the US that challenge conventional wisdom of American politics.
