Imperium in Imperio

Self-published in 1899 and sold door-to-door by the author, this classic African-American novel--a gripping exploration of oppression, miscegenation, exploitation, and black empowerment--was a major bestseller in its day. The dramatic story of a conciliatory black man and a mulatto nationalist who grow up in a racist America and are driven to join a radical movement dedicated to the creation of an all-black nation in Texas, "Imperium in Imperio" had a profound influence on the development of black nationalism.Griggs, Sutton E. is the author of 'Imperium in Imperio', published 1975 under ISBN 9780404001650 and ISBN 0404001653.
