Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Originally published in England in 1938 (the same year as his magnum opus The Black Jacobins) and expanded in 1969, this work remains the classic account of global black resistance. Robin D.G. Kelley''s substantial introduction contextualizes the work in the history and ferment of the times, and explores its ongoing relevance today.
