A biography of Carl B. Stokes. Focusing on Stokes and Cleveland, but attending to themes that affected many urban centers after the second migration of African Americans to the North, it balances Stokes' failures and successes to provide a thorough portrait of his life and his contributions to a distinct African American political culture.
