The black experience in America -- starting from its origins in western Africa up to the present day -- is examined in this seminal study from a prominent African American figure. The entire historical timeline of African Americans is addressed, from the Colonial period through the civil rights upheavals of the 1960s and 1970s. The most recent scholarship on the geographic, social, economic, and cultural journeys of African Americans, together with vivid portraits of key black leaders, complete this comprehensive reference.
"...one of the top 10 influential black books...Highly recommended." -- Black History 365, Volume Two Issue Two, Autumn 2008.
