Cedric Robinson
Definition
- Cedric Robinson is a political scientist who has delineated an extensively revised look at slavery, its origins, and its impact on modern society as a counter to traditional Western perspectives. His most prominent work, Black Marxism, is revolutionary in its scope and its historical and analytical sweep, a 500-year historical and political narrative about the emergence of the Black radical tradition, grounded in the struggle against both racism and racialized capital that materialized as a negation of western civilization.
