Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Rodney was a scholar, working class militant, and revolutionary from Guyana. Strongly influenced by Marxist ideas, he remains central to radical Pan-Africanist thought for large numbers of activists’ today. Rodney lived through the failed –though immensely hopeful -socialist experiments in the 1960s and 1970s, in Tanzania and elsewhere.

The first full-length study of Rodney’s life, this book is an essential introduction to Rodney's work.
