African American history : a very short introduction

Holloway, Jonathan Scott2023
Books
This 'Very Short Introduction' covers the long sweep of African American history from the seventeenth century to the present. Throughout that long arc, this book traces shifting definitions of citizenship as they relate to race and highlights the deep paradox at the core of U.S. history: the interdependence of slavery and freedom. In so doing, Holloway examines key ideas that have shaped African American history, and the ways that these ideas circulate among both well-known figures and ordinary people.
