In this ambitious work, first published in 1983, Cedric Robinson
demonstrates that efforts to understand Black people's history of
resistance solely through the prism of Marxist theory are
incomplete and inaccurate. Marxist analyses tend to presuppose
European models of history and experience that downplay the
significance of Black people and Black communities as agents of
change and resistance. Black radicalism, Robinson argues, must be
linked to the traditions of Africa and the unique experiences of
Blacks on western continents, and any analyses of African American
history need to acknowledge this. To illustrate his argument,
Robinson traces the emergence of Marxist ideology in Europe, the
resistance by Blacks in historically oppressive environments, and
the influence of both of these traditions on such important
twentieth-century Black radical thinkers as W. E. B. Du Bois, C. L.
R. James, and Richard Wright. This revised and updated third
edition includes a new preface by Tiffany Willoughby-Herard, and a
new foreword by Robin D. G. Kelley. Not for Sale in the UK or
