By Milton Smith, Mbembe Milton Smith, Milton Smith

Finalist, Montaigne Medal, Eric Hoffer Award

The Black American Literature Forum said of his work, "Mbembe's poems express a hunger for a fuller life, for an affirmation of existence." The Kansas City Star commented, "Mbembe works with his own special problem of saying what he has to say and saying it in the authentic voice of a special culture." The literary quarterly Northeast summed up his work by suggesting we "look for his light on the dark waters of the bay--red flashing four: courage; white flashing one: love--you will find your way safely to harbor."
