Frederick Douglass Paperback - 1999 - 1st Edition
by Bill Lawson (Editor); Frank Kirkland (Editor)
First line
Derrick Bell's allegory of the USA making a lucrative deal with "Space Traders" to carry off its black population recapitulates an old American fantasy of ridding the country of black people; proposals to send "Negroes back to Africa," had begun to surface as early as the beginning of the eighteenth century.
From the rear cover
In this powerful volume, 15 leading American philosophers examine and critically reassess Douglass's significance for contemporary social and political thought.
Philosophically, Douglass's work sought to establish better ways of thinking, especially in the light of his convictions about our humanity and democratic legitimacy - convictions that were culturally and historically shaped by his experience of, and struggle against, the institution of American slavery.
Contributors include Bernard R. Boxill, Angela Y. Davis, Lewis R. Gordon, Leonard Harris, Tommy L. Lott, Howard McGary, and John P. Pittman.
