Protest And Propaganda

By exploring how The Crisis responded to critical issues, these essays provide a well rounded, indepth look at the magazine’s role and influence. The authors show how the essays, columns, and visuals published in The Crisis changed conversations, perceptions, and even laws in the United States, thereby calling a fractured nation to more fully live up to its democratic creed. They explain how the magazine survived tremendous odds, document how the voices of justice rose above the clamor of injustice, and demonstrate the relevance of literary, journalistic, and artistic postures amid the crises of the twentyfirst century.
