Hard Road to Freedom tells the story of Black Americans from its roots in Africa to the social and political upheavals of today. It narrates the story of Black people in America as an expression of one of the nation's fundamental principles, the pursuit of freedom. Interweaving the experiences of individual Black Americans, it brings together stories formerly told separately. In vividly written chapters, Lois E. Horton and James Oliver Horton depict African Americans' central part in the creation of American civilization. Meticulously researched, Hard Road to Freedom blends these diverse strands into a rich tapestry of African American struggle and achievement.
