Abstract
This book provides a regional and comparative analysis of the origins, development, and legacies of the Black Power movement in the Caribbean in the turbulent decades of the 1960s and 1970s. Black Power in the Caribbean highlights the unique local origins and causes of Black Power mobilization in the Caribbean and its relationship to Black Power in the United States, ultimately setting the historical roots and modern legacies of the movement in a wider international context. Providing a broad regional coverage, the studies in the book range from as far north as Jamaica, Bermuda and the Guyanas to as far south as Trinidad and Tobago and Curaçao. Exploring what Black Power meant in the majority black and multi-ethnic states of the Caribbean, the book demonstrates that the Caribbean has much to add to our understanding of Black Power in the global context.
