Spanning the eight decades between the American Revolution and the
Civil War, Bethel focuses on the lives of African Americans living
in the nominally free northern and western states. Examining race
and the construction of a politicized racial identity, this book
explores how a group of fundamentally marginalized people crafted a
uniquely New World ethnic identity which informed popular African
American historical consciousness. The vision of freedom and
historical consciousness this population crafted shaped post-1865
African American participation in Reconstruction, formed the
spiritual and ideological foundation for the modern Pan-African
movement and provided the historical legacy for the Civil Rights
Movement of the 1960s.
