Winner of the 2019 Richard P. McCormick Prize from the New Jersey
Historical Commission​ Black New Jersey tells the rich and
complex story of the African American community’s remarkable
accomplishments and the colossal obstacles they faced along the
way. Drawing from rare archives, historian Graham Russell Gao
Hodges brings to life the courageous black men and women who fought
for their freedom and eventually built a sturdy and substantial
middle class. He explores how the state’s unique mix of
religious, artistic, and cultural traditions have helped to produce
such world-renowned figures as Paul Robeson, Cory Booker, and Queen
Latifah, as well as a host of lesser-known but equally influential
New Jersey natives. Â
