"Thereupon I began with nothing but an ambition and an invincible heart." - Randolph Miller Between 1897 and 1914, Randolph Miller brandished the Chattanooga Weekly Blade against t he forces of injustice and prejudice which he saw unravelling before him in the state of Tennessee and the country at large. Fiery in his writing, controversial in his politics, larger than life in his presence, Miller lived and died as a pioneer of Black civil rights in the Progressive Era South. Collected together for the first time, his life and writings continue to speak to those issues of race, class, and political power which shape American society and the American conscience over a hundred years later.
