Introduction: What is an African American intellectual? -- The emergence of the black public intellectual : race, class, and the struggle against racism -- Black intellectuals and the quest for legitimacy : civil rights, black power, and the expenditure of moral capital -- The conservative revolution and its impact on Afro America, 1980-1992 -- Popular culture and the African American intellectual search for a new American identity -- A new century and new challenges : the visibility of African American intellectuals and the construction of diasporic diversity.
