ISBN: 9780814736685 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the heyday of the U.S. and international labor movements in the 1930s and 1940s, Ferdinand Smith, the Jamaican-born co-founder and second-in-command of the National Maritime Union (NMU), stands out as one of the most if not the most powerful black labor leaders in the United States. Smith s active membership in the Communist Party, however, coupled with his bold labor radicalism and shaky immigration status, brought him under continual surveillance by U.S. authorities, especially during the Red Scare in the 1950s. Smith was eventually deported to his homeland of Jamaica, where he...

The Deepest South: The United States, Brazil, and the African Slave Trade
ISBN: 9780814736890 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 341 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During its heyday in the nineteenth century, the African slave trade was fueled by the close relationship of the United States and Brazil. The Deepest South tells the disturbing story of how U.S. nationals - before and after Emancipation -- continued to actively participate in this odious commerce by creating diplomatic, social, and political ties with Brazil, which today has the largest population of African origin outside of Africa itself. Proslavery Americans began to accelerate their presence in Brazil in the 1830s, creating alliances there--sometimes friendly,...

Black and Brown
ISBN: 9780814736678 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Mexican Revolution was a defining moment in the history of race relations, impacting both Mexican and African Americans. For black Westerners, 1910-1920 did not represent the clear-cut promise of populist power, but a reordering of the complex social hierarchy which had, since the nineteenth century, granted them greater freedom in the borderlands than in the rest of the United States. Despite its lasting significance, the story of black Americans along the Mexican border has been sorely underreported in the annals of U.S. history. Gerald Horne brings the tale to life in Black and Brown....

The Counter-Revolution of 1776: Slave Resistance and the Origins of the United States of America
ISBN: 9781479893409 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 363 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The successful 1776 revolt against British rule in North America has been hailed almost universally as a great step forward for humanity. But the Africans then residing in the colonies overwhelmingly sided with London. In this trailblazing book, Gerald Horne complements his earlier celebrated Negro Comrades of the Crown, by showing that in the prelude to 1776, the abolition of slavery seemed all but inevitable in London, delighting Africans as much as it outraged slaveholders, and sparking the colonial revolt. In the prelude to 1776, more and more Africans were joining the British military,...
