This book is the first to focus a bright light on the life and
early career of George S. Schuyler, one of the most important
intellectuals of the Harlem Renaissance. A popular journalist in
black America, Schuyler wielded a sharp, double-edged wit to attack
the foibles of both blacks and whites throughout the 1920s. Jeffrey
B. Ferguson presents a new understanding of Schuyler as public
intellectual while also offering insights into the relations
between race and satire during a formative period of
African-American cultural history.Ferguson discusses Schuyler's
controversial career and reputation and examines the paradoxical
ideas at the center of his message. The author also addresses
Schuyler's drift toward the political right in his later years and
how this has affected his legacy.
