Description: David Walker a free (with a small f) black man was one of the most significant African - American abolitionists of the nineteenth century. Born in a slave society before moving to Boston where after the American Revolutionary War slavery was abolished Walker devoted his life to fighting slavery and antiblack racism. In this book Sherrow O. Pinder brings to light Walker's lived experience activism and the synchronizing of his Christian principles and reformist radicalism to demonstrate why and how slavery must be eliminated. Walker's call for blacks to regain their natural rights culminated in his Appeal to the Coloured Citizens of the World an enormously influential work that is now considered a founding text of black studies. Today given the escalation of antiblack racism manifested in the upholding of institutionalized violence by the state and the continued marginality of African - Americans we cannot afford to forget Walker's push for racial egalitarianism: it is more urgent than ever.
