Cedric J. Robinson is one of the doyens of Black Studies and a pioneer in study of the Black Radical Tradition. His works have been essential texts, deconstructing racial capitalism and inspiring insurgent movements from Ferguson, Missouri, to the West Bank. For the first time, Robinson's essays come together, spanning over four decades and reflective of his interests in the interconnections between culture and politics, radical social theory, and classic and modern political philosophy.

Themes explored include Africa and Black internationalism, world politics, race and US foreign policy, representations of blackness in popular culture, and reflections on popular resistance to racial capitalism, white supremacy, and more. Essays here include:

● The Black Detective and American Memory

● Slavery and the Platonic Origins of Anti-Democracy

● Africa: In Hock to History and the Banks

● Blaxploitation and the Misrepresentation of Liberalism

Accompanied by an introduction by H. L. T. Quan and a foreword by Ruth Wilson Gilmore, this collection, which includes previously unpublished materials, extends the many contributions by a giant in Black radical thought.
