Question

Answer 1

Correction: He was bisexual.

From Wikipedia:

James Arthur Baldwin (August 2, 1924 – November 30, 1987) was a novelist, short story writer, playwright, poet, and essayist, best known for his novel Go Tell It on the Mountain. Most of Baldwin's work deals with racial and sexual issues in the mid-20th century United States. His novels are notable for the personal way in which they explore questions of identity as well as for the way in which they mine complex social and psychological pressures related to being black and bisexual, well before the social, cultural or political equality of these groups could be assumed.

Good Luck....
