Description
The July 2013 issue of Race & Class is a special issue: Black History – Black Politics.
Jonathan Fenderson critiques a trend in US scholarship that is attempting to gentrify studies on the Black Power Movement, revising Black history in order to make it palatable for a liberal audience.
