Black Black people are the majority in The job challenges Yakub's physical and moral courage, as he confronts - Gangsters, defrocked Voodoo priests, crooked cops, and a hard-boiled private witch; ? - Beautiful pop divas Shakeaplenty and Honeypie, who sing dirty opera arias in inner-city symphonic joints; ? - TV news griots, black minstrels in whiteface, and a Back To Europe movement in the white ghetto; and most of all, ? - His ex-lover Aisha Salim, a brave black volunteer in the movement for white civil rights. ? Mojo Snake Minuet is more than a thriller -- it blows the cover off the black-and-white race racket, the music racket, and the newspaper and politics and religion rackets, among other shameful rackets. John Litweiler, a former Down Beat and Encyclopedia Britannica staff writer-editor, has written liner notes, essays, articles, and reviews in the Chicago Reader, Sun-Times, Tribune, New York Times Book Review, Kulchur, Jazz Times, Jazz Monthly, www.sima.org.au, and so on. The price for Mojo Snake Minuet, a Goodbait Book, is $15.00.* * YOU CAN BUY MOJO SNAKE MINUET from Seminary Co-op Bookstore, at 5757 South University Ave., Chicago, IL 60637 (later this week, you can order online from orders@semcoop.com) and its sister store 57th Street Books, at 1301 East 57th Street, Chicago 60637 (fiftysev@semcoop.com).
