by Darlene Clark Hine, William C. Hine, Stanley Harrold

Description

This comprehensive yet accessible history traces the African American experience from the beginnings of the Atlantic world through the early twenty-first century, examining the people, movements, and institutions that shaped the nation. It explores slavery and resistance, emancipation and Reconstruction, segregation and the civil rights movement, as well as the ongoing struggles for equality, identity, and social justice. Drawing on current scholarship and a broad range of historical perspectives, the authors place African American lives at the center of the larger American story. Concise in presentation but expansive in scope, this volume offers an illuminating introduction to a vital and continually evolving field of history.
