This seminal book, published in 1963 at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, remains as relevant and urgent today as it was over half a century ago. Baldwin’s prose confronts the racial injustice deeply embedded in American society. He explores themes of identity, religion, and the complex relationship between oppressor and oppressed with honesty and remarkable eloquence. His analysis of the intersection of race, religion, and American identity is both scathing and deeply compassionate.
