This book delineates the important issues and ideas that developed out of the political experience of the Civil Rights Movement, and argues that the Movement was not as much about ending segregation and political disenfranchisement as about having blacks recognized as individuals and enhancing their sense of self-worth and freedom.

`King begins with a stimulating analysis of what he calls the "repartory of freedom", showing that freedom as a political concept has numerous meanings ... This excellent study deals with vital but complex issues is a lucid and accessible manner. King makes very good use of oral history, particularly from Howard University's Civil Rights Documentation Project, and has consulted a massive array of published sources, particularly theoretical analyses of freedom and revolution. His fresh perspective on the civil rights movement, deserves to be read by historians and political theorists alike.'American Politics Review
