Title: The Longue Durée of Black Lives Matter. Author: Nelson A. Journal: Am J Public Health; 2016 Oct; 106(10):1734-7. PubMed ID: 27626337.

Wells' anti-lynching campaign, Fannie Lou Hamer's reproductive justice demands, and the Black Panther Party's health activism. The 50th anniversary of the Black Panther Party is an occasion to recall that its work confronted the callous neglect and the corporeal surveillance and abuse of poor Black communities. Similar demands have been the centrifugal force of social movements that for centuries have refused to have Black lives cast beyond the human boundary.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
