The Politics of Black Citizenship: Free African Americans in the Mid-Atlantic Borderland, 1817–1863 - Race in the Atlantic World, 1700–1900
Andrew K. Diemer
Considering Baltimore and Philadelphia as part of the Mid-Atlantic borderland, Diemer shows that the antebellum effort to secure the rights of American citizenship was central to black politics as it exploited the ambiguities of citizenship and negotiated the complex national, state, and local politics in which that concept was determined.
