Negroes With Guns is a non-fiction book written by Robert Franklin Williams, an African-American civil rights leader and activist. The book was first published in 1962 and is a powerful account of Williams' experiences fighting for racial equality in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s.In this book, Williams argues that African Americans should arm themselves in order to protect themselves from white supremacist violence and oppression. He draws on his own experiences as a leader of the Monroe, North Carolina chapter of the NAACP, where he organized armed self-defense patrols to protect the black community from attacks by the Ku Klux Klan and other white supremacist groups.Williams' ideas were controversial at the time, as many civil rights leaders believed in non-violent resistance as a means of achieving equality. However, Williams believed that armed self-defense was necessary in the face of violent attacks on the black community, and that the right to bear arms was a fundamental part of the struggle for civil rights.The book also includes a detailed history of the struggle for civil rights in the United States, from the slave trade to the Jim Crow era, and provides a powerful critique of the racism and inequality that still existed in the country in the 1960s.Overall, Negroes With Guns is a groundbreaking and thought-provoking book that challenges traditional ideas about the civil rights movement and the role of violence in achieving social change. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the civil rights movement and the ongoing struggle for racial equality in the United States.Edited By Marc Schleifer.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

"We've got some difficult days ahead," civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr., told a crowd gathered at Memphis's Clayborn Temple on April 3, 1968. "But it really doesn't matter to me now because I've been to the mountaintop. . . . And I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land."These prophetic words, uttered the day before his assassination, challenged those he left behind to see that his "promised land" of racial equality became a reality; a reality to which King devoted the last twelve years of his life.These words and others are commemorated here in the only major one-volume collection of this seminal twentieth-century American prophet's writings, speeches, interviews, and autobiographical reflections. A Testament of Hope contains Martin Luther King, Jr.'s essential thoughts on nonviolence, social policy, integration, black nationalism, the ethics of love and hope, and more.
