From the supplier: Richard Wright in his 'Uncle Tom's Children' calls on African Americans to remain active in the black church, which has always maintained its members' sense of self-worth and to use Marxist politics in addition to this spiritual legacy in working for the aim of civil equality. Wright was exposed to the black church as a boy but later became involved with the Communist Party and was a committed party member when he wrote the book. What appealed to him initially in communism was its spiritual sense of community.
