In 1965 Dudley F. Randall founded the Broadside Press, a company
devoted to publishing, distributing and promoting the works of
black poets and writers. In so doing, he became a major player in
the civil rights movement. Hundreds of black writers were given an
outlet for their work and for their calls for equality and black
identity. Though Broadside was established on a minimal budget,
Randall's unique skills made the press successful. He was trained
as a librarian and had spent decades studying and writing poetry;
most importantly, Randall was totally committed to the advancement
of black literature. The famous and relatively unknown sought out
Broadside, including such writers as Gwendolyn Brooks, Margaret
Walker, Mae Jackson, Lance Jeffers, Etheridge Knight, Sonia
Sanchez, Nikki Giovanni, Audre Lorde and Sterling D. Plumpp. His
story is one of battling to promote black identity and equality
through literature, and thus lifting the cultural lives of all
Americans.
