I have a pretty strong grounding in American history overall (I just finished a BA in it) but I have never studied the Black Freedom Struggle in its own right (only as part of the Reconstruction Era, 1920s, 70s Radicalism, the Labor Movement, etc.). I'm especially interested in secondary surveys which go from, say, 1877 to the present and talk about the major movements and intellectual influences so I can study other parts more in-depth.
Thanks for any help you can give me!
Hi there, those interested in recommending things to OP! While you might have a title to share, this is still a thread on AskHistorians, and we still want the replies here to be to an /r/AskHistorians standard - presumably OP would have asked at /r/history or /r/askreddit if they wanted non-specialist opinion. So give us some indication why the thing you're recommending is valuable, trustworthy or applicable! Posts that provide no context for why you're recommending a particular podcast/book/novel/documentary/etc, and which aren't backed up by a historian-level knowledge on the accuracy and stance of the piece, will be removed.
