A review by laureen0515
Black Power: Politics of Liberation in America by Charles V. Hamilton, Kwame Ture

4.75

The book was well researched and had more of a scholarly feel than I expected. However, it is a very approachable book and one that I would highly recommend. I think that every black person should read this book. It is an aspect of our history that is generally not taught in an honest way, if at all. The only mild criticism that I have is that some of the references are no longer relevant (but most are). I am hesitant to list some of the dated references as a negative; which I will admit is not a fault of the book and is somewhat addressed with and addendum at the end of the book which have reflective commentaries of the authors twenty five years after its publication.
