"[This] critical edition of a selection of Richard B. Moore's essays closes one more gap in the astonishing history of twentieth-century Afro-American nationalism." Journal of American History "This first collection of Moore's writings ... [is] a welcome and important contribution to scholarship concerned with the political and intellectual history of African peoples in general and of African peoples in the Americas, in particular... an inspiration to those who follow after to study and emulate his life and achievement."
