Abstract "This book offers a comprehensive and authoritative history of the fraternity, emphasizing its vital role across multiple phases of the Black freedom struggle. The authors address both the individual work of its membership, which has included such figures as Carter G. Woodson, Bayard Rustin, Benjamin Mays, Jim Clyburn, Jesse Jackson, and Benjamin Crump, and the collective efforts of the fraternity's leadership to encourage rank and file members to contribute to the struggle in concrete ways over the years"-- Provided by publisher.
