For those who think they know history!

This is an absolute must have. It is the cornerstone of my library collection. From "David Walker's Appeal" to Angela Davis' "I Am a Revolutionary Black Woman" to Mumia Abu-Jamal's "A Voice from Death Row" this book is pure genius. It is not a book to borrow but to be owned and cherished in any book collection!
A unique and exceptional contribution to Black Studies.

This Afro-American anthology provides accounts of civil rights reforms, history and resistance, gathering the most important political writings and testimonials from over three centuries. Activists like DuBois, Douglass and Malcolm X are joined by lesser-known names in this survey of how individual actions formed into a movement. Oral testimonies, interviews and essays blend in an important coverage.
