Black power : the politics of liberation in America
- London Jonathan Cape 1968
- 198p.
"This book presents a political frame work and ideology which represent the last reasonable opportunity for this society to work out its racial problems short of prolonged destructive guerilla warfare. That such violent warfare may be un avoidable is not herein denied. But if there is the slightest chance to avoid it, the politics of Black Power as described in this
book is seen as the only viable hope.' This passage, written by the authors, sums up their attempt to place the argu ments of Black Power in the context of the ghetto riots of the 1967 summer.
