  • Tears, Fire, and Blood

    James H MeriwetherBOOKTears, Fire, and Blood2021

    In the mid-twentieth century, the struggle against colonial rule fundamentally reshaped the world and the lives of the majority of the world's population. Decolonization, Black and Brown freedom movements, the establishment of the United Nations and NATO, an exploding Cold War, a burgeoning world human rights movement, all became part of the dramatic events that swept through Africa at a furious pace, with fifty nations gaining independence in ro…

  • Peniel E. Joseph. Stokely

    James H MeriwetherARTICLEThe American Historical Review2015

    We are overdue for a full, scholarly biography of Stokely Carmichael, so it is a decidedly welcome event to have Peniel E. Joseph deliver this excellent new work. Written with both broad accessibility and scholarly insight in mind, Joseph's book provides a window into a world of people, ideas, and events that reminds us again of the remarkable years of 1960–1968, the era in which Carmichael was a central and meaningful actor. This biography in ma…

  • Worth a Lot of Negro Votes

    James H MeriwetherARTICLEJournal of American History2008Citada por: 4

    In July 1960 some 280 African students awarded scholarships in the United States stood poised for an extraordinary opportunity. Four years of college would vault them into the educated elites of their countries and provide crucial intellectual infrastructure as their nations moved toward independence. The students had scholarships; their communities had raised money for expenses. Just one obstacle remained: passage to America. And as the start of…

  • Conflicting Missions

    James H Meriwether, Piero GleijesesREVIEWJournal of American History2002

    This excellent book reads in some ways as traditional diplomatic history, with pages full of U.S. government officials producing and debating documents while people such as Henry Kissinger dictate policy. Yet Piero Gleijeses offers far more, for the chapters are filled with the thoughts and actions of a vast array of actors, most notably Cuban volunteers from the battlefields of Africa, who were intimately involved with the events at hand. Indeed…
