This article focuses on the impact of the Bolshevik revolution and Irish national liberation struggles on the black radical tradition in the US. Between 1919 and 1922, the African Blood Brotherhood (ABB) published a monthly journal, The Crusader, which attempted to forge a very specific race/class politics in the US. The Crusader shaped its powerfully articulated vision of black liberation through its trumpeting of the Russian revolution and the Irish anti-colonial struggle. If reparative history is a history which stresses the dialectical nature of 'race' and colonialism and the importance of recognising the agency of black subjects in transforming the politics of resistance, then the ABB is key to understanding the complex formations around race and class in the US in the early twentieth century.
