ReVisioning American History: an intersectional history of the shared struggle for African American, and Latinx Peoples civil rights with Paul Ortiz, professor of history and director of the Oral History Program at the University of Florida. He is the author of Emancipation Betrayed: The Hidden History of Black Organizing and White Violence from Reconstruction to the Bloody Election of 1920 and An African American and Latinx History of the United States
An epic, panoramic account of class struggles in the Western Hemisphere. At center stage are the Black, and Latinx people who built the new world
Spanning more hundreds of years, indigenous peoples history, and the African American and Latinx history of the United States are revolutionary. They are politically charged narratives arguing that the Global South was crucial to the development of America as we know it. They challenge the notion of westward progress, as exalted by widely taught formulations such as manifest destiny and Jacksonian democracy, and show how placing African American, Latinx, and Indigenous voices unapologetically front and center transforms American history into the story of the working class organizing against imperialism
