Description
"Originally published in 1930, Black Manhattan traces the Black experience in New York City from its origins in the seventeenth centurty through the Revolutionary and Civil War periods, to the triumphant achievements of the Harlem Renaissance. Written by one of the leading Black scholars and activists of the first half of the twentieth century, this timeless book also illuminated Black literature, theater and music of the time, as well as raising important questions about Black people's struggles to find their identity in America. An essential sociological and historical document, this new edition of Black Manhattan features a foreword by best-selling author Zadie Smith.
