The Evidence of Things Not Seen
Baldwin, James. Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1985 (1st Ed., 1st Printing). Hardbound. Author photo by J. Phil Samuell. Between 1979 and '81, more than 28 Black American youth were killed in Atlanta under mysterious but interrelated circumstances, resulting in a city-wide state of panic. Baldwin, sent on assignment by Playboy, here amasses a book-length work of literary reportage on the phenomenon, calling into question alleged official perpetrator Wayne Williams's culpability for the bloodshed, which has since been thought to be attributed to sources ranging from the KKK to the CIA to the CDC.
