Based on the latest research, this work provides a new look at the
lives of African Americans in the Western United States, from the
colonial era to the present. From colonial times to the present,
this volume captures the experiences of the westward migration of
African Americans. Based on the latest research, it offers a fresh
look at the many ways African Americans influenced-and were
influenced by-the development of the U.S. frontier. African
Americans in the West covers the rise of the slave trade to its
expansion into what was at the time the westernmost United States;
from the post-Civil War migrations, including the Exodusters who
fled the South for Kansas in 1879 to the mid-20th century civil
rights movement, which saw many critical events take place in the
West-from the organization of the Black Panthers in Oakland to the
tragic Watts riots in Los Angeles. A rich collection of
photographs, many never before published A completely up-to-date
bibliography highlighting significant resources for further study
on African Americans in the West
