Named one of the Most Anticipated Books of 2025 by Foreign Policy
Howard French's The Second Emancipation stands the second half of the last century on its geopolitical head. ―David Levering Lewis, winner of the Pulitzer Prize
From the acclaimed author of Born in Blackness comes an extraordinary account of Africa's liberation from colonial oppression, a work that fundamentally reshapes our understanding of modern history.
A work of epic dimension that recasts the liberation of twentieth-century Africa through the lens of revolutionary leader Kwame Nkrumah.
The Second Emancipation, the second work in a trilogy from bestselling author Howard W. French about Africa's pivotal role in shaping world history, underscores Adam Hochschild's contention that French is a modern-day Copernicus. The title―referring to a brief period beginning in 1957 when dozens of African colonies gained their freedom―positions this liberation at the center of a movement of global Blackness, with one charismatic leader, Kwame Nkrumah (1909-1972), at its head.
