The Black radical tradition and the academy: The future of radical scholarship

University of California, Santa Barbara

What is the essence of radical scholarship? How does it relate to subjugated knowledge and those experiences historically dismissed as of little account? Its relationship to truth telling and its attempt to extend the boundaries of what is known and knowable are here discussed in relation to Robinson’s lifetime work. It is grounded both in a refusal to compromise and, in Robinson’s phrase, in ‘the recovery of human life from the spoilage of degradation’.

Key Words: academia • Black Marxism • Black radical tradition • Cedric Robinson
