This book is the sequel to J.A. Rogers’ book: From Superman to Man and is an introduction to the field of African Studies. Here are 2 reviews by prominent scholars in the field of African Studies and former colleagues of Dr. John Henrik Clarke: “Early in his career, I recognized that Dr. John Henrik Clarke was a brilliant intellectual and unique person. He invited me to join the faculty in the Department of Black and Puerto Rican Studies at Hunter College, CUNY. In this stirring discussion of African global history and politics, Maurice Miles Martinez brings Dr. Clarke alive for a new generation of readers and shows why his approach is still relevant to the struggle facing Africans and the African Diaspora today. By having Dr. Clarke encounter Herman Cain on a South-to-North bus ride, Martinez academically and metaphorically demonstrates Dr. Clarke’s desire to teach everywhere he went and to challenge those in power to outline a genuine economic, political and cultural roadmap for African people.” –Tilden Lemelle, Ph.D. and former Professor and Chair of the Department of Black and Puerto Rican Studies at Hunter College, CUNY ****************************************** “As a former colleague and friend of Dr. John Henrik Clarke, I found that Martinez captured his personality, his spirit and his desire to spread knowledge about Africa even to those who may be doubtful. Over the years, I traveled to the African continent with Dr. Clarke. Using more than 200 sources, many of which Dr. Clarke regularly cited in his lectures, Martinez brings forth Dr. Clarke’s approach to African History, his gift of persuasion by using irrefutable facts, and his desire to engage with those who did not see his point of view.” –Bert Green, Ph.D. Herbert H. Lehman College, CUNY

It may be difficult to imagine that a consequential black electoral politics evolved in the United States before the Civil War, for as of 1860, the overwhelming majority of African Americans remained in bondage. Yet free black men, many of them escaped slaves, steadily increased their influence in electoral politics over the course of the early American republic. Despite efforts to disfranchise them, black men voted across much of the North, sometimes in numbers sufficient to swing elections. In this meticulously-researched book, Van Gosse offers a sweeping reappraisal of the formative era of American democracy from the Constitution’s ratification through Abraham Lincoln’s election, chronicling the rise of an organized, visible black politics focused on the quest for citizenship, the vote, and power within the free states.
Full of untold stories and thorough examinations of political battles, this book traces a First Reconstruction of black political activism following emancipation in the North. From Portland, Maine and New Bedford, Massachusetts to Brooklyn and Cleveland, black men operated as voting blocs, denouncing the notion that skin color could define citizenship.
