Releasing the Spirit: A Collection of Literary Works from Gallery 37

This work contains poetry, short plays and short stories written by young people as part of Chicago’s Gallery 37 Project in 1997. The illustrations are also done by the youthful participants in Gallery 37. It was compiled and edited by Haki Madhubuti and Gendolyn Mitchell of Third World Press. Gallary 37 is an art education program for young people from 14 to 21 that offers opportunities in poetry, prose and the visual arts.
