Mercy, Mercy Me: African American Culture and the American Sixties - Race and American Culture
Hall, James C. (Assistant Professor of English and African-American Studies, Assistant Professor of English and African-American Studies, University of Illinois at Chicago)
This study argues that American artistry in the 1960s can be understood as one of the most vital and compelling interrogations of modernity. The author posits that the legacy of slavery has made African-Americans among the most incisive critics and celebrants of the "Enlightenment inheritance".
