The Groundings With My Brothers by Walter Rodney

"This edition published by Verso 2019 First published by Bogle-L'Ouverture Publications 1969."
If Walter Rodney's assassins were under the impression that they could arrest the flow of his ideas by destroying his body, they could have not been more wrong. .In the context of the new resistance fo global capitalism, his captivating analysis resonates more than ever before. -- Angela Davis, author of Women, Race and Class
Grounds with My Brothers issues an open call, even today, for the black intellectual to engage in the discourse of black consciousness and black power, and also to actively seek out concrete tactics and strategies which are necessary for our liberation -- Carlos Clarke, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Belize
Rodney's perspective is alive, dazzling with the potential of revolution -- Vijay Prashad, author of The Poorer Nations and Director of the Tricontinental Institute for Social Research
In short order, Groundings became the single most influential Black Power text in the Caribbean as well as the region's most notable ideological contribution to Black Power globally. -- Michael West * Groundings: Development, Pan-Africanism, Critical Theory, Vol. 4, No. 1, 2018 *
Walter Rodney was an internationally renowned historian of colonialism and a leader of Black Power and Pan-African movements across the diaspora, most notably the Guyanese Working People's Alliance. His life and work brought together struggles for independence on the African continent with the strivings of the black working classes of North America and the Caribbean basin. On June the 13th, 1980, Rodney was assassinated, most likely by the then-president of Guyana. He was 38 years old.
