This interview is part of a larger project on the Black prophetic tradition and its impact on today's ongoing struggle for justice and equality. We are concerned with the special challenges facing Black public intellectuals and activists, particularly with the impediments deriving from their position as outsiders in society; we consider the philosophical and political voices that helped form their own thinking as well as the social conditions that shaped them; and we reflect on the role of religion in their lives and its specific function in the Black community.2
