For more than three decades, Fred Ho has been a radical artist and
activist. As a composer and baritone saxophonist, he is famed for
creating a new music that fuses Asian and African traditions. The
influence of the Black Power and Black Arts movements during his
coming of age inspired him to become one of the leading radical
Asian American activist-artists. Ho’s passions for art and
justice have always been linked—his music seeks to express his
politics and his activism has injected revolution into his art.
Wicked Theory, Naked Practice is a groundbreaking collection of
Ho’s writings, speeches, and interviews of the past three decades
on topics ranging from Mao to Coltrane, from Sun Ra to selling out,
and from fighting oppression to battling cancer. His work insists
on connections among creative and artistic processes, political
theorization, and activist organizing. As Robin D. G. Kelley says
in the foreword, “Ho writes, speaks, and plays in order to
persuade and inspire, to expose the crimes of the ruling class, and
to challenge the status quo so that we imagine a different
future.” Through Wicked Theory, Naked Practice, Ho’s
contributions merge political and cultural theory, shedding new
light on the radical movements of the 1960s and 1970s and revealing
the fascinating story behind a prolific and politically engaged
artist across all genres.
