Reviews

"Manning Marable never stopped wrestling with this landmark volume, and neither should we. Ranging widely across time, spheres, and data, this work, at once polemical and analytical, continues to offer an account of inequality at the intersection of class, gender, and race that has yet to be matched. Some three decades on, How Capitalism Underdeveloped Black America remains a book that provokes, informs, and motivates." –Ira Katznelson, Ruggles Professor of Political Science and History, Columbia University

"A cohesive portrait of black America." –Cornel West

PRAISE FOR THE AUTHOR:

"Manning was an unflinching and breathtakingly prolific scholar whose commitments to racial, economic, gender, and international justice were unparalleled. ... There are two generations of African-American scholars who will remember him as much for the mentor he was to us as for the research legacy he leaves. ... When I think of Manning himself it is as a great well – possessing reserves of energy, intellect and commitment I have never before witnessed." –Melissa Harris-Perry, MSNBC

"A groundbreaking historian ... one of America's truest public intellectuals." –John Nichols, The Nation
