These are the architects of the modern civil rights movement: 4 profiles of revolutionary groups making change beyond protest. A radically different approach to sustaining social justice movements-4 strategies for abolition and liberation from the new architects of the modern civil rights movement. Many of us think, I don’t support the police. But what should take their place? Or: Prisons don’t keep us safe. But what new systems could? A lot of books about racial justice ask us how we got here, but Reimagining the Revolution is different: award-winning journalist and activist Paula Lehman-Ewing presents an inside-access look at the activists redefining where we go from here. Lehman-Ewing frames each profile within two fundamental truths: The current system-built and sustained by oppression, extraction, and inequity by design-cannot be reformed. And, knowing this, we need abolition; we need creative solutions designed by the people most impacted by the systems they fight to change. Reimagining the Revolution is a call to action for each of us: if we can access the tools we have, we can dream bigger, think outside the box, and follow the paths laid out by change-making activists toward nothing short of revolution.

The practice of African slavery has been described as the United States’s most shameful sin. Undoing this practice was a long, complex struggle that lasted centuries and ultimately drove America to a bitter civil war.After an introduction that places the United States’s form of slavery into a global, historical perspective, author T. Adams Upchurch shows how an ancient custom evolved into the American South’s peculiar institution. The gripping narrative will fascinate readers, while excerpts from primary documents provide glimpses into the minds of key abolitionists and proslavery apologists. The book’s glossary, annotated bibliography, and chronology will be indispensable tools for readers researching and writing papers on slavery or abolitionists, making this text ideal for high school and college-level students.
