About the Author:
Kwame Ture, formerly known as Stokely Carmichael, was among the most fiery and visible leaders of Black militancy in the United States in the 1960s, first as head of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and then as prime minister of the Black Panther Party, where he coined the phrase "Black Power." In 1969 he cut his ties with American groups over the issue of allying with White radicals, and moved to Guinea. He declared himself a pan-Africanist. In 1978 he changed his name to Kwame Ture, to honor African socialist leaders Kwame Nkrumah and Ahmed Sekoe Toure. He lived in Guinea for 33 years, until his diagnosis with prostate cancer. He died in 1998. Charles V. Hamilton is a political scientist, civil rights leader, and the W. S. Sayre Professor Emeritus of Government and Political Science at Columbia University.
Synopsis:
An explanation of the ideology and desired political framework of the Black Power movement in America.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: New. First published in 1967. This revolutionary work defined a phrase that had become a central part of the Civil Rights vocabulary. Stokely Carmichael and Charles V. Hamilton exposed the depths of systemic racism in America and provided aviable political framework for reform. African-Americans could no longer afford to believe that their liberation would come through traditional political processes: true and lasting social change would only be accomplished through their unity and independence from the pre-existing order. The book continues to be of relevance to the racial climate today. Bibiography, Index. 230p. Seller Inventory # 2955770
