Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
The essay "The Anarchism of Blackness" appeared in issue #5 of ROAR Magazine this April (as well as on ROAR's website: https://roarmag.org/magazine/black-liberation-anti-fascism/). It made a splash and was reposted and shared widely. The authors responded favorably to the idea of expanding the essay into a book. The book is presented as a complement to titles like From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation (Haymarket, 2016) and other contemporary titles looking at liberation from a Black perspective. As Black as Resistance isn't an "anarchist" book in the sense of its message being self-marginalizing. We think the tone and lessons will resonate far and wide.

“Samudzi and Anderson establish a perfect balance of comprehensive and elaborate collection of sources analyzed and tied together in this book. An essential reading for understanding of how we can extend the Black radical traditions of anarchists in the first wave of Black anarchism to our material conditions post-George Floyd uprising.”
