In this exciting revisionist history Stephen Tuck traces the black freedom struggle in all its diversity from the first years of freedom during the Civil War to President Obamas inauguration. As it moves from popular culture to high politics from the Deep South to New England the West Coast & abroad Tuck weaves gripping stories of ordinary black people
- as well as celebrated figures
- into the sweep of racial protest & social change. The drama unfolds from an armed march of longshoremen in post-Civil War Baltimore to Booker T. Washingtons founding of Tuskegee Institute; from the race riots following Jack Johnsons fight of the century to Rosa Parks refusal to move to the back of a Montgomery bus; & from the rise of hip hop to the journey of a black Louisiana grandmother to plead with the Tokyo directors of a multinational company to stop the dumping of toxic waste near her home. We Aint What We Ought To Be" rejects the traditional narrative that identifies the Southern non-violent civil rights movement as the focal point of the black freedom struggle. Instead it explores the dynamic relationships between those seeking new freedoms & those looking to preserve racial hierarchies & between grassroots activists & national leaders. As Tuck shows strategies were ultimately contingent on the power of activists to protest amidst shifting economic & political circumstances in the U.S. & abroad. This book captures an extraordinary journey that speaks to all Americans
- both past & future."
