One of the founders of the National Communication Association's Black Caucus,
Jack L. Daniel, recounts the series of events, confrontations, allies, and
organizing activities of the Black Caucus from its earliest days as a part of the
1968 Speech Association of America's Commission on the Discipline and Social
Problems through its gaining of independent caucus status within the subsequent
SCA and NCA. Together with Daniel's vibrant ethnographic style, the Afterwords
from Lucia S. Hawthorne, Dorthy L. Pennington, Melbourne S. Cummings, Carolyn
Calloway- Thomas, and Venita Kelley add the voices of several other founders,
caucus chairs, and a new generation of leaders.
