Analysis. Baldwin’s father died in 1943, a few hours before his last child was born. After his father’s funeral, which took place on Baldwin’s birthday, a race riot broke out in Harlem. This series of events seemed to have been designed to mock Baldwin’s lack of belief in the apocalypse, a distinct contrast to the beliefs of his father.
