Collection of non-fiction writings by American black leaders—teachers, artists, politicians, religious leaders, athletes, and others—covering 250 years of history. In addition to works by major figures such as W.E.B. Dubois, Malcolm X and Ida B. Wells, Black Thought and Culture presents the complete run of The Black Panther, oral histories and other previously hard to access material. The ideas of over 1,000 authors present an evolving and complex view of what it is to be black in America.
