Rezensionen

'This path-breaking collection offers new insights into the global resonances of Black Power in such unexpected locales as New Zealand, Israel, and India, while also situating the US Black Power movement and its antecedents within the political and cultural traditions, and collective memory, of the African diaspora. Scholars and lay readers alike will find this a rewarding collection that dramatically transforms their understandings of the movement.' - Penny Von Eschen, professor of History, University of Michigan, USA
