9781540441164: The Case for Nation Formation

Synopsis

THE CASE FOR NATION FORMATION is a collection of seven commentaries that build on Ta-Nehisi Coates’ “The Case for Reparations.” The book is unique because it delineates rationales for a Black American effort to initiate our own new nation. It describes why we are prepared and qualified to operate our own nation, and it discusses potential outcomes if we do not make the effort. Given the 2016 US Presidential Election results, the social-political-economy is ripe for nation formation efforts. It is up to Black Americans to take full advantage of what may turn out to be a temporary opportunity.
