As a jungle is clear cut in the far east, a team from a drug company work desperately to find plants that may be turned into medicines. But they find something altogether different and truly spectacular: a group of six abandoned infants. They aren't human...and they aren't apes, either. Could they be Orang Tanda, the legendary people of the forest who are believed to have been extinct for thousands of years?
The scientists spirit them off to the United States and raise them in extreme secrecy in a facility in Texas. They're highly intelligent and because they're not human they can be bought and sold. As such, they are incredibly valuable, but only if they will breed offspring, and that's a problem.
Enter primatologist Beth Cooke, brought in to get them making babies. But she finds the company's plans a grotesque nightmare and vows to free them instead.
But can she? And if she does, what will happen to these six strange and brilliant creatures when they face the modern world?
This is a story unlike any other, about hope, about human courage in an impossible situation, and, above all, about looking up at the sky for the first time, with eyes that are truly new.

African American art in the era of Malcolm X and the Black Panthers
In the period of radical change that was 1963-83, young black artists at the beginning of their careers confronted difficult questions about art, politics and racial identity. How to make art that would stand as innovative, original, formally and materially complex, while also making work that reflected their concerns and experience as black Americans?
Soul of a Nation surveys this crucial period in American art history, bringing to light previously neglected histories of 20th-century black artists, including Sam Gilliam, Melvin Edwards, Jack Whitten, William T. Williams, Howardina Pindell, Romare Bearden, David Hammons, Barkley L. Hendricks, Senga Nengudi, Noah Purifoy, Faith Ringgold, Betye Saar, Charles White and Frank Bowling.
The book features substantial essays from Mark Godfrey and Zoe Whitley, writing on abstraction and figuration, respectively. It also explores the art-historical and social contexts with subjects ranging from black feminism, AfriCOBRA and other artist-run groups to the role of museums in the debates of the period and visual art's relation to the Black Arts Movement. Over 170 artworks by these and many other artists of the era are illustrated in full color.
2017 marks the 50th anniversary of the first use of the term "black power" by student activist Stokely Carmichael; it will also be 50 years since the US Supreme Court overturned the prohibition of interracial marriage. At this turning point in the reassessment of African American art history, Soul of a Nation is a vital contribution to this timely subject.
