Reviews
This companion does a fine job of touching on Baldwin's many political ventures: his fiction, essays, speeches, and general philosophy. - Peter Augustine Lawler, author of American Heresies and Higher Education The collection of excellent essays that Susan McWilliams has gathered here could not have come at a better time, for James Baldwin's voice remains indispensable to democratic citizens still aspiring to shape a political culture that acknowledges and holds itself accountable to the history and legacies of white supremacy. Taken together, these essays remind us that we lose sight of Baldwin's key ideas and insights only at our peril. - Robert Gooding-Williams, Columbia University
