A sharp and insightful analysis of historic movements against racism in the US - from the separatism of Marcus Garvey, to the militancy of Malcolm X and the Black Panther Party, to the eloquence of Martin Luther King, Jr and much more - with essential lessons for today's struggles.

In the 40 years since the civil rights movement, many gains have been made but there is still far to go to win genuine change. Here is a badly needed primer on the history and future of struggle against racism.

Black Liberation And Socialism offers invaluable insights for those seeking to understand and combat racism in any era.
