Conversations on the Future of Democracy: A History of African American Political Thought
The John W. Kluge Center will host the co-editors of the new book, African American Political Thought: A Collected History, for a conversation that touches on some of the central questions of political life in the US. The book, from political theorists Melvin Rogers and Jack Turner, brings together contemporary scholars to reflect on the contributions of important figures in the tradition of African American political thought, providing an unprecedented philosophical history of thinkers from the African American community and the African diaspora.
