In the critical period from 1956 to 1974, the emergence of newly independent states worldwide and the struggles of the civil rights movement in the United States exposed the limits of racial integration and political freedom. Dissidents, leaders and elites alike were linked in a struggle for power in a world where the rules of the game had changed. Brenda Gayle Plummer traces the detailed connections between African Americans' involvement in international affairs and how they shaped American foreign policy, integrating African American history, the history of the African Diaspora and the history of United States foreign relations. These topics, usually treated separately, not only offer a unified view of the period but also reassess controversies and events that punctuated this colorful era of upheaval and change"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000841107 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xCivil rights. 000841107 650_0 $$aDecolonization$$zAfrica. 000841107 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xRelations with Africans$$xHistory. 000841107 650_0 $$aAfrican diaspora$$xHistory. 000841107 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xForeign relations$$zAfrica. 000841107 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xForeign relations$$zUnited States. 000841107 852__ $$bebk 000841107 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1057521$$zOnline Access 000841107 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:841107$$pGLOBAL_SET 000841107 980__ $$aEBOOK 000841107 980__ $$aBIB 000841107 982__ $$aEbook 000841107 983__ $$aOnline
