A Dialogue with the Ghosts of Resistance offers a rigorous and deeply reflective examination of Black resistance movements in American history through a unique blend of historical biography, cultural analysis, and personal memoir. Anchored in the philosophical and spiritual thought of Howard Thurman, and extending to the revolutionary symbolism of Captain Ibrahim Traore, this work interrogates the intersections of education, protest, power, and dehumanization.

Engaging with the erasure of Black narratives in dominant historical discourse, M. Sharpe reopens critical dialogues with past movements-from the Civil Rights era to Pan-African human rights struggles-arguing for their continued relevance in understanding today's sociopolitical realities. A tribute to his late wife and a call for intellectual and moral reckoning, this book challenges readers to reconsider how resistance, identity, and history are remembered and reimagined.
