The Back to Africa Movement Explained,
By
This review is from: Journey of Hope: The Back-to-Africa Movement in Arkansas in the Late 1800s (John Hope Franklin Series in African American History and Culture) (Paperback)
This is a very readable book on the back to Africa movement and how it played out in Arkansas in particular.The Author does a execellent job of explainig the history of the movement along with the motivation of the poeple who wanted to go and those that wanted to help them go. While this book focuses on Arkansas the conditions in it were the conditions for many Blacks in the aftermath of Reconstruction. It is this fact that gives the book a universal appeal This is a must read for anyone intrested in American history immediatly after reconstruction or the Back to Africa movement.
