ITEM OVERVIEW
The testament of a remarkably perceptive mind. Political advisor, historian, community worker, and international cricket player, Roberts moved from the Caribbean to Montreal in the early 60s. There he was instrumental in pushing forward the agendas of Black Power, political theory (with CLR James), and community. Based on an extensive interview, here is this man's remarkable life in his own words. It includes an extensive introduction and notes from David Austin, who conducted the interview, and an afterword from Robert Hill (friend, comrade, and literary executor of the CLR James estate).
"If Alfie said it is so, then it must be so." - CLR James
