This collection of essays includes Bogg's remarkable \"The City Is the Black Man's Land,\" an article anticipating the black nationalist programs that were to emerge in the later 1960s. Boggs hails the coming of what was at the time the new slogan of the black revolution with an essay called, \"Black Power: A Scientific Concept Whose Time Has Come.\" In further essays, he hammers at his theme of the \"second civil war\" and black control of the cities. In his concluding piece, written especially for this book, Boggs evaluates and analyzes the movement of the late 1960s and its various groups.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBoggs, James:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eJames Boggs\u003c\/b\u003e (1919-1993) was an African American auto worker and radical activist raised in rural Alabama.
