We are pleased to announce that Professor Kellie Carter-Jackson, winner of the James H. Broussard Best First Book Award for her book “Force and Freedom, Black Abolitionists and the Politics of Violence” will participate in the New Democracy Coalition’s Civic Literacy Project Black Author’s Series.


Her new book examines the conditions that led some black abolitionists to believe slavery might only be abolished by violent force. In Force and Freedom, Carter Jackson provides the first historical analysis exclusively focused on the tactical use of violence among antebellum black activists.
