Robert F. Williams

This is someone your history teacher forgot to tell you about.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF ROBERT F. WILLIAMS PROVIDED THE INTELLECTUAL FOUNDATION FOR AMERICA'S MOST MILITANT ADVOCATES OF RACIAL AND SOCIAL JUSTICE. FROM HIS ACTIONS, SPEECHES, AND WRITINGS EMERGED THE FOUNDATION FOR THE BLACK POWER MOVEMENT.

His most influential years were lived in exile in first Cuba and then China. His communications were suppressed by the CIA and the United States postal service.
