In 1968, as protests shook France and war raged in Vietnam, the
giants of black radical politics descended on Montreal to discuss
the unique challenges and struggles facing their black comrades all
over the world. Against a backdrop of widespread racism in the West
and ongoing colonialism and imperialism in the Global South, this
group of activists, writers, and political figures gathered to
discuss the history and struggles of people of African descent and
the meaning of black power. For the first time since 1968, David
Austin brings alive the speeches and debates of the most important
international gathering of black radicals of the era. With
never-before-seen texts from Stokely Carmichael, Walter Rodney and
C.L.R. James, these documents will prove invaluable to anyone
interested in black radical thought and political activism of the
1960s.
