This long-needed sourcebook assesses the unique styles and themes
of notable African-American orators from the mid-19th century to
the present—of 43 representative public speakers, from W.E.B. Du
Bois and Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Martin Luther King Jr. and Jesse
Jackson to Barbara Jordan and Thurgood Marshall. The critical
analyses of the oratory of a broad segment of different types of
public speakers demonstrate how they have stressed the historical
search for freedom, upheld American ideals while condemning
discriminatory practices against African-Americans, and have spoken
in behalf of black pride. This biographical dictionary with its
evaluative essays, sources for further reading, and speech
chronologies is designed for broad interdisciplinary use by
students, teachers, activists, and general readers in college,
university, institutional, and public libraries.
