Black and Brown: African Americans and the Mexican Revolution, 1910-1920
by Gerald Horne
Description
Drawing on archives from both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border, this study examines African Americans’ experiences and political engagement during the Mexican Revolution of 1910–1920. It explores how revolutionary upheaval, racial violence, migration, and international politics shaped Mexico’s emergence as a relative refuge for African Americans—and the forces that ultimately weakened that promise. Blending social, diplomatic, and political history, the book illuminates the interconnected struggles over race, sovereignty, labor, and freedom across North America.
