Summary:

The End of White World Supremacy explores a complex issue-integration of Blacks into White America-from multiple perspectives: within the United States, globally, and in the context of movements for social justice. Rod Bush locates himself within a tradition of African American activism that goes back at least to W.E.B. Du Bois. In so doing, he communicates between two literatures-world systems analysis and radical Black social movement history-and sustains the dialogue throughout the book. Bush explains how racial troubles in the U.S. are symptomatic of the trouble
