Bøger af Keith Gilyard

This is the story of Louise Thompson Patterson-a leading and transformative figure in the radical African American politics of the twentieth century-who spent her entire life dedicating herself toward achieving social justice and liberation for all.

In this first major biography of John Oliver Killens, Keith Gilyard examines the life and career of the man who was perhaps the premier African American writer-activist from the 1950s to the 1980s. Gilyard extends his focus to the broad boundaries of Killens's times and literary achievement-from the Old Left to the Black Arts Movement and beyond.
