A towering achievement. There is simply nothing like it in the history of Black radical thought
Cedric Robinson's brilliant analyses revealed new ways of thinking and acting
I can say, without a trace of hyperbole, that this book changed my life.
Black Marxism shattered the taken-for-granted of understanding the modern world, allowing us to see the racist nature of capitalism. There are very few books that transform how we have to approach the world and Black Marxism is one of them
A handbook for a new generation of radicals and activists ... Robinson's work helpfully points to the tension in Marxism between the march towards progress and the spontaneous character of revolution... offers a sense of belonging and a means of imagining a common future
