Title:Ready for Revolution |
By any measure, Stokley Carmichael (Kwame Ture) fundamentally altered the course of history. Published at the fifth anniversary of Carmichael's death, This long awaited autobiography fill a yawning gap in the American historical record as it chronicles the legendary civil rights leader's work as chairman of SNCC, patriarch of Black Power, Pan-African activist, and social revolutionary. It is an unflinching, searing, often visionary testament to the man's legacy and joins the works of Frederick Douglas, W. E. B. Du Bois, Malcolm X, and Nelson Mandela as a crucial and colorful contribution to contemporary history.

Title:Soledad Brother |
When Soledad Brother was first published, many people sensed in George Jackson the successor to Malcolm X. Jackson emerged from obscurity transformed from a precipitous, despair-ridden adolescent into a man of knowledge, passion, and control. The power of George Jackson's personal story remains painfully relevant to our nation today, with it's persistent racism, its hellish prisons, its unjust judicial system, and the poles of wealth and poverty. Though George Jackson was murdered ten months after the book was published, Soledad Brother remains a menace to the powers that killed him. |

The main thesis of this book is that the operational existence of Black-on-Black violence in the United States is psychologically and economically mandated by White American-dominated status quo. The criminalization of the Black American male is a psychopolitically engineered process designed to maintain the dependency and relative powerlessness of the African-American and Pan-Afrikan communities.

Title:African Presence in Early America |
Sixteen years have passed since They Came Before Columbus appeared, in which Van Sertima presented most of the facts that were then known about the links between Africa and America before Columbus. But since then many more sculptures have emerged from the earth or from the backrooms of private collections. New stone heads have surfaced in recent excavations while a very old one with a seven-braided Ethiopian hairstyle has come out of a century of obscurity into sudden prominence. Far more sophisticated analyses may now be presented of ancient African astronomy, map-making, scripts, navigation, trade routes, pyramidal structure, linguistic connections, technological and ritual complexes. In this collective work, Van Sertima is joined by half a dozen other colleagues. The work focuses largely on contact between Africa and America towards the close of the bronze age. (circa 948-680 B.C.) and the Mandingo-Songhay trading voyages (from early fourteenth to late fifteenth century). |

Cornel West has for the last decade been one of the nation's premiere public intellectuals and one of the great prophetic voices of our era. The Cornel West Reader illustrates the breadth and distinction of one of our best known and most prolific public intellectuals, a thinker whose University Professorship at Harvard justly acknowledges the unusual range as well as the quality of his scholarship. West's greatest skill is his ability to write about issues in a way which excites, angers, validates and causes one to think analytically and critically about the world around them...The Cornel West Reader offers something of immense value. |
