Summary of Making All Black Lives Matter: Reimagining Freedom in the Twenty-First Century (Volume 6) (American Studies Now: Critical Histories of the Present)

In "Making All Black Lives Matter: Reimagining Freedom in the Twenty-First Century," award-winning historian and activist Barbara Ransby presents a compelling narrative that chronicles the dynamic rise of the contemporary Black Freedom Movement. Published on August 28, 2018, this volume provides an in-depth look into the resurgence of activism sparked by the unjust death of Trayvon Martin in 2012 and fueled by the Ferguson uprising in 2014. Ransby expertly documents the evolution of the movement, highlighting its roots in Black feminist politics and its expansion into a robust coalition advocating for racial and gender justice through an anticapitalist and internationalist lens. With a participant-observer’s insight, she maps the strategies, profiles key yet lesser-known leaders, and assesses both the triumphs and challenges of the movement. Ideal for college students studying social justice, this book not only explores the movement's significant impact but also inspires critical thought on the future of racial justice activism.
