Summary Focuses on the 1920s, 1930s, and the Black Power movement to examine successive failures of socialists and Marxists to enlist sympathetic blacks, and white leftists' refusal to fight for the cause of racial equality which led to black leftists separating from the groups and turning to the hard left or staying independent. Calls for current discontent to be mobilized within the black community to active opposition to the social and economic status quo through a return to its radical roots.
