The Cry of Black Rage in African American Literature from Frederick Douglass to Ta-Nchisi Coates

By Steven T Moore

"This very fine study of Black rage in literature by male and female African American writers over a century of time and prior to the civil rights movement is a major contribution to our understanding of African American literature and life. Pairing one male and one female writer from three historical movements, slavery, the New Negro Movement, and World War II - Dr. Steven T. Moore demonstrates the destructive impact of racism on Black characters from 1845 to 1945 within a framework of silence of white silence."--excerpt from foreword.
