"Living Black History" Manning Marable (2006)

We all live history every single day, whether or not we realize it. In Living Black History, Manning Marable – one of the most important black scholers and activists to emerge after the civil rights movements – reminds us of this essential fact by offering a fresh and personal look at the enduring legacy of such well-know Arican-American fiures as Malcolm X, M.L.King, Jr. Megar Evers, and W.E.D. DuBois.
In the process, Marable presents a concept of „living history“ that transcends the antiquated perception he African-American history is somehow separate from that of America itself. Bringing immediacy to the trials and tribulations of yesterday, Living Black History is both a dynamic portrayal of our collective past, and an impassioned call to engage with the unfolding drama of American history.

Dr. Manning Marable is a prominent lecturer and interpreter of the politics and history of race in America. He is the Founding Director of the Institute for Research in African-American Studies at Columbia University in New York City, and is the author of more than fifteen books on the subject, including: W.E.B.Du Bois (1986); Race, Reform, and Rebellion: The Second Reconstruction in Black America (1991); Beyond Black and White (1995); Speaking the Truth to Power (1996); Black Leadership (1998) Malcolm X: A Life of Reinvetion (2011
