The third reconstruction : America's struggle for racial justice in the twenty-first century  Cover Image Book Book

The third reconstruction : America's struggle for racial justice in the twenty-first century / Peniel Joseph.

Joseph, Peniel E., (author.).

Summary:

"Peniel Joseph offers a powerful new interpretation of recent American history. The summer of 2020, he argues, marked the climax of nothing less than a Third Reconstruction: a new period of intense struggle to secure citizenship and dignity for Black Americans, just as momentous as the movements that sought to transform America after the US Civil War and during the civil rights era. America's first and second Reconstructions failed to achieve their largest aims. But our Third Reconstruction, Joseph writes, offers an opportunity we must seize"-- Provided by publisher.
