Errol A. Henderson is Associate Professor of Political Science at Pennsylvania State University. He is the author of several books, including African Realism? International Relations Theory and Africa's Wars in the Postcolonial Era.

"Errol A. Henderson's masterful and powerful book lays bare the complex dynamics of the revolutionary black nationalist tradition in the US empire. It is the best treatment we have of the theoretical contributions of Malcolm X, Harold Cruse, Grace Boggs, and others that attempt to connect revolutionary efforts to black cultural institutions. His fascinating reflections on reverse civilizationism are worth the book! And Henderson's magisterial work helps bring back revolutionary theory and praxis in our grim neofascist times!" — Cornel West"This book is not only one of the most intellectually ambitious works but also the most comprehensive examination of revolutionary theory in the Black Power Era. A monumental accomplishment. Bravo!" — Komozi Woodard, author of A Nation within a Nation: Amiri Baraka (LeRoi Jones) and Black Power Politics
