The Black Bag

"The Black Bag" is about a man and his eventful, colorful, and amazing life. Although growing up in foster homes does not deter Percy, better known as P, from making the most of his life, he ends up as a self-made pimp instead ora productive member of society. He revels in a life that revolves around "ballin" and "pimpin" in Memphis, Tennessee with Fran, better known as Snowflake, his stressed-out girlfriend, prostitute, business partner, and family. Considering the last designation, it does not surprise that P is left distraught after her momentous trick. After developing a strong liking to her "services," a high-rolling client whom P has nicknamed Mr. Three Stacks requests for Snowflake to meet him in Las Vegas, Nevada. The trick causes P and Snowflake to believe that they are finally on their way to making it big in Sin City. Alas, Snowflake's rendezvous with Three Stacks ends in nothing but her death, and P getting stranded in Las Vegas with only a black bag full of cash from the client. Despite the tragedy, it is fortunate that P meets a truck driver named Ann who befriends and then takes him in. Before long, seemingly improbable events take place through which P enlists in the CIA and then discovers the truth behind Snowflakes' supposed death: she is still alive, but in the clutches of the Italian mob which is led by her father. The Don, Snowflake's father, has sent P the black bag full of money in exchange for her daughter, so P would not end up marrying Snowflake and become the next "don." There is no way that P will just sit idly by now that he knows the love of his life is still alive, so he proceeds to rescue her. Thus begins the quest that ultimately changes P forever. "The Black Bag" may appeal to a reader seeking stories that touch on a variety of subjects, which include mystery, high crime, romance, and redemption.

From 1968 to 1972, St. Louis was home to the Black Artists' Group (BAG), a seminal arts collective that nurtured African American experimentalists involved with theater, visual arts, dance, poetry, and jazz. Inspired by the reinvigorated black cultural nationalism of the 1960s, artistic collectives had sprung up around the country in a diffuse outgrowth known as the Black Arts Movement. These impulses resonated with BAG's founders, who sought to raise black consciousness and explore the far reaches of interdisciplinary performance--all while struggling to carve out a place within the context of St. Louis history and culture.A generation of innovative artists--Julius Hemphill, Oliver Lake, and Emilio Cruz, to name but a few--created a moment of intense and vibrant cultural life in an abandoned industrial building on Washington Avenue, surrounded by the evisceration that typified that decade's "urban crisis." The 1960s upsurge in political art blurred the lines between political involvement and artistic production, and debates over civil rights, black nationalism, and the role of the arts in political and cultural struggles all found form in BAG. This book narrates the group's development against the backdrop of St. Louis spaces and institutions, examines the work of its major artists, and follows its musicians to Paris and on to New York, where they played a dominant role in Lower Manhattan's 1970s "loft jazz" scene. By fusing social concern and artistic innovation, the group significantly reshaped the St. Louis and, by extension, the American arts landscape.
