Black Radical: The Life and Times of William Monroe Trotter
by Kerri K. Greenidge Author
This volume, written by historian Kerri K. Greenidge, details the life of the unlikely and, regrettably, largely unknown activist, writer, and organizer, William Monroe Trotter. The Harvard educated Trotter wrote for and edited the Boston-based newspaper, the Guardian, and is noted as critical of the moderate and assimilationist views of his contemporaries, further, as having advocated for a vision of a Black liberation that prefigured individuals such as Malcolm X, MLK Jr, and Marcus Garvey.

I read this entire book in two days, forgoing eating, showering and working because I could not bring myself to put this down, when I had finished it, I wished I had savored it longer
"This is a searingly honest book- read it if you have the courage. Dwight Abbott's story will reveal more about the self-fueling horrors of incarceration than would ten of the average criminology texts. For years this book has circulated as an almost cult underground document, a simple key to explaining the complex wretched mess that is the American criminal justice system."
