The Black Lives Matter movement has awakened a new generation of activists.\u003cbr\u003e In this stirring and insightful analysis, activist and scholar Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor surveys the historical and contemporary ravages of racism and persistence of structural inequality such as mass incarceration and Black unemployment. In this context, she argues that this new struggle against police violence holds the potential to reignite a broader push for Black liberation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeeanga-Yamahtta Taylor \u003c\/strong\u003eis the author of \u003cem\u003eRace for Profit: How Banks and the Real Estate Industry Undermined Black Homeownership\u003c\/em\u003e, a semi-finalist for the 2019 National Book Award and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in History in 2020, and \u003cem\u003eFrom #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation\u003c\/em\u003e, winner of the Lannan Cultural Freedom Award for an Especially Notable Book in 2016.
