When James Baldwin died in 1987 at the age of sixty-three, he left behind an extraordinary body of work. Novels, poems, film scripts, and, perhaps most indelibly, essays constituted the great artists writing, which was not divisible from his work and subsequent fame as a civil rights activist. A friend to and supporter of Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, and Medgar Evers, Baldwin was the voice of a movementa voice that struggled after his early recognition as a creator to retain the authors I, while taking on the We of his people. In God Made My Face, edited by Hilton Als on the occasion of the centenary of Baldwins birth, texts by Hilton Als, Stephen Best, Daphne A. Brooks, Teju Cole, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Barry Jenkins, Jamaica Kincaid, David Leeming, and Darryl Pinckney create a kind of mosaic, one that not only mirrors Baldwins various voices but examines, closely, his sui generis contributions to cinema, theater, the essay, and Black American critical studiesincluding queerness. Each author speaks from a personal, informed perspectivethrough voices that are both imbued with Baldwins deeply personal, anguished, and enlightened voice and his belief that, ultimately, because we are human, we share the potential to love and connect.
