Washington, W. E. B. DuBois and Marcus M. Garvey. In doing so, he challenges both popular and scholarly conceptions of them as villains or heroes. In analyzing the intellectual struggles and contradictions of these five dominant personalities with regard to individual morality and collective reform, Professor Moses shows how they contributed to strategies for black improvement and puts them within the context of other currents of American thought, including Jeffersonian and Jacksonian democracy, Social Darwinism, and progressivism. 606 $aAfrican Americans$xIntellectual life$y19th century 606 $aAfrican Americans$xIntellectual life$y20th century 606 $aConflict management$zUnited States$xPhilosophy 606 $aAfrican American intellectuals$vBiography 606 $aAfrican American political activists$vBiography 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xIntellectual life 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xIntellectual life 615 0$aConflict management$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aAfrican American intellectuals 615 0$aAfrican American political activists 676 $a305.896/073/00922 700 $aMoses$b Wilson Jeremiah$f1942-$0700527 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784438103321 996 $aCreative conflict in African American thought$93763326 997 $aUNINA
