Comments 

"In his powerlessness and victimization, with nothing left to lean on, the black man is likely to mount the seesaw, if not the roller coaster of racial psycho-social dependency and messianic religiosity...on the one hand and the individual chemical dependent on the other. Marvin deconstructs both. In the bottomless caverns of addiction in any form, there seems no amount of religiosity, coke, crack, alcohol or sex sufficient to sedate the social angst and shattered cultural strivings."

--Dr. Nathan Hare, from Introduction, Somethin' Proper, the Autobiography of Marvin X, Black Bird Press, 1998

"Marvin reaches in and pulls from a life lived hard, deep, wide, high and low, i.e., a sacrifice in blood! At the root of sacrifice is sacred, which is of God and for God. He has lived and examined lives of the proverbial ten thousand black men and women. He gives us the truth of that experience, lived and examined."

--Fahizah Alim, Editor Emeritus, Sacramento Bee

"He is a deep sea diver who rarely comes up for air. And when he does, it is only for a moment!"

--Aishah Kokomon

"Courageous and outrageous, he walked through the muck and mire of hell but came out clean as white fish and black as coal!"

--James W. Sweeney RIP

"In terms of being modernist and innovative, he's centuries ahead of anybody I know!"

--Dennis Leroy Moore, filmmaker, Brecht Forum, New York City
