“When one looks back over the last twenty years to those men who were
most far-sighted, who first began to tease out the muddle of ideology in
our times, who were at the same time Marxists with a hard theoretical
basis, and close students of society, humanists with a tremendous
response to and understanding of human culture, Comrade James is one of
the first one thinks of.” —E.P. Thompson
“C.L.R. James is one of those rare individuals whom history proves right.” —Race Today
“It remains remarkable how far ahead of his time he was on so many issues.” —New Society
