McKay was especially outraged that his poems had been published in the same publication that had castigated his Home to Harlem. As Claude vehemently put it, "I particularly resent the publication of my poems in the same number of the Crisis which criticizes my novel, the editor steps outside the limits of criticism to become personal. I should think that a publication so holy-clean and righteous pure as the Crisis should hesitate about printing anything from the pen of a writer who wallows so much in the dirt, filth, drunkenness, fighting and lascivious sexual promiscuity."35
