Benjamin Quarles brings together for the first time a broad range of statements by blacks on Brown from his day to the present -- from William Wells Brown and Frederick Douglass (who explains why he did not join the raid) to Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, and Lerone Bennett. The twenty-four selections include personal letters, eulogies, resolutions, reminiscences, sermons, poems, essays, newspaper editorials, and assessments by historians. The heroic image of Brown that they project was a factor in creating the legend of an immortal John Brown, a continuing source of inspiration for black leaders. The selections reveal much about America, black protest, and the relationship between blacks and whites over the past century. -- From publisher's description.
