Back to Black seeks to show us the long, powerful and painful history of Black radical politics. Kehinde Andrews shows how Black radicalism has been diluted and moderated over time, wilfully misrepresented and caricatured by others, divested of its legacy, potency, and force.Immensely readable and shocking, Andrews traces the true roots of this tradition in this new illustrated edition, and connects the dots to today's struggles by showing what a renewed politics of Black radicalism might look like in the 21st century.
