Back to Black traces the long and eminent history of Black radical
politics. Born out of resistance to slavery and colonialism, its rich
past encompasses figures such as Marcus Garvey, Angela Davis, the Black
Panthers and the Black Lives Matter activists of today.
At its
core it argues that racism is inexorably embedded in the fabric of
society, and that it can never be overcome unless by enacting change
outside of this suffocating system. Yet this Black radicalism has been
diluted and moderated over time; wilfully misrepresented and caricatured
by others; divested of its legacy, potency, and force. Kehinde Andrews
explores the true roots of this tradition and connects the dots to
today's struggles by showing what a renewed politics of Black radicalism
might look like in the 21st century.
