Pan Africanism in the African Diaspora: An Analysis of Modern Afrocentric Political Movements (African American Life Series)
Pan Africanism in the African Diaspora: An Analysis of Modern Afrocentric Political Movements
This groundbreaking volume analyzes important case studies of Black political movements since the 1960s and the impact of the movements on the African-American community.

Jesse Jackson's 1984 Presidential Campaign: Challenge and Change in American Politics
Party Platforms as Political Process
As a political scientist who has managed issues in presidential campaigns, I have noticed the tensions between theory and practice. This tension was most evident in the Democratic party's decision to devalue its platform in the 1988 presidential elections.

The Black initiatives in the Middle East began as a direct consequence of the resignation of Andrew Young.' On the very day of this event, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference was holding its annual meeting in Norfolk, Virginia, and Young, who had been a former Executive Director of this organization, was scheduled to be the main speaker. Young's cancellation of this speaking engagement brought in another member of SCLC, the Reverend Jess…

Marxism-Leninism and the Black Revolution: A Critical Essay
The Nuclear Arming Of South Africa
devastating rebellions which recently occurred in South Africa, leaving untold numbers of blacks either dead or wounded are a painful and tragic, yet necessary reminder of the human stakes in the Southern African situation. As the tempo of the southward movement of the revolution heightens and the issues in Namibia, Zimbabwe and Azania come clearly into focus, it should be underlined once again, that both in terms of the classic dimensions of pol…
