Fanon said that "every generation must find its mission" and this generations mission is clearly articulated in The New Black Sociologists. The new black sociology should be unconditionally black feminist and intersectional, adopt a more international perspective, recognize the importance of "lay theorists" and experiential knowledge, and be deeply committed to defending black people against the physical and emotional violence racism and the racists inflict on them. We are all indebted to Marcus Anthony Hunter for gathering these powerful voices in this book, a book destined to become a classic!

Once in a great while a book comes along to reveal the field of Sociologys smugness about race, about black identity, about whiteness. Once in a great while a book challenges the mainstream sociology of racism, or even reinvents it, putting black scholars at the center of its account. In the tradition of Joyce Ladner and Patricia Hill Collins, and firmly situated in the legacy of W.E.B Du Bois, Marcus Anthony Hunters edited collection, The New Black Sociologists, is such a book. Highly recommended for course adoption! Howard Winant, University of California, Santa Barbara
Bravo! Another must-read book from the Black critical tradition. From its beginning Black social analysts have led in critically understanding this countrys still-foundational white racism. Here contemporary Black critical sociologists not only assess known and forgotten thought leaders and activists of the past and present, but also provocatively research and weigh contemporary racial, class, gender issues their critical heritage enables them to comprehend more clearly than most analysts of our era.
