&#34;This book is a welcome addition to the composition on the life and death of Walter Rodney and deals with the cover up of his assassination in the most authentic way since the C of I report of 2016.&#34;&#160;&#8212;Donald Rodney&#34;Seeing, listening to or reading Walter Rodney, before and after his unfortunate death, something always puzzled and stayed with me &#8211; The How of Walter Rodney. How did this relatively young brother from a small Caribbean nation gain such a vast world view? How was he able to grasp the conditions of the Pan African world so firmly and translate those conditions through his socialist worldview? How was Rodney able to move so fluidly through communities in the Caribbean, the US, the UK, Africa and literally the whole of the Pan African world? How was he accepted and loved as kin in all of those communities? And how did he become the number one target of a Guyanese government desperately plotting to end his life? And of late, my big one, how does Walter Rodney still endure timelessly in the immediate consciousness of so many Pan-African activists and thinkers today?&#160; Without fail Leo Zeilig&#8217;s enduring&#160;A Revolutionary for Our Time&#160;answered these and so many other &#8220;how's&#8221; beyond my considerations.&#34;&#160;&#8212;Paul Coates, Black Classic Press&#34;Through exacting research, exacting presentation, and careful analysis, Leo Zeilig offers a remarkable contribution to radical thought and practice worthy of Walter Rodney's legacy.&#8221;&#8212;Olufemi Taiwo, assistant professor of philosophy at Georgetown University and author of&#160;Reconsidering Reparations&#160;and&#160;Elite Capture&#34;Leo Zeilig takes readers through the choices that Walter Rodney made. Choices both small and large, but all taking Rodney to the heights of scholarship, organization, family, comradeship. Zeilig offers a compelling narrative and an incisive analysis of Rodney&#8217;s ferocious commitments to revolutionary change. This is a fascinating and vital study of Rodney&#8217;s life.&#34;&#8212;Diane C. Fujino, professor and author,&#160;Heartbeat of Struggle: The Revolutionary Life of Yuri Kochiyama&#34;The Black Lives Matter movement&#8217;s embrace of radical and pan-Africanist ideas has introduced Walter Rodney to a new generation of activists. A Revolutionary for Our Time is an urgently-needed contribution, one that situates the importance of Rodney&#8217;s Marxism, his life and work, in working-class and anti-racist struggle. It is a must-read account of a revolutionary who understood that nothing short of socialism could bring liberation.&#34;&#160;&#8212;Lee Wengraf, author,&#160;Extracting Profit: Imperialism, Neoliberalism, and the New Scramble for Africa&#34;This is a splendid narrative of Walter Rodney&#8217;s legendary life and work across three continents. Leo Zeilig&#8217;s singular achievement is to have brilliantly located Rodney, the Black Power Marxist, at the intersection of the politics of radical nationalism and visionary socialism that suffused the pan-African world in the 60s and 70s. An unforgettable read.'&#8217;&#160;&#8212;Issa Shivji, Emeritus Professor, University of Dar es Salaam&#34;A Revolutionary for Our Time is both timely and necessary. Through Walter Rodney's ideas and actions, it engages the weighty issues of the current moment. More than a biography of a remarkable individual, we get the optics of a family committed to radical, worldwide transformation and the crosscurrent of people who embraced them as well as the local-global networks of power they dared to challenge.&#34;&#160;&#8212;Kwasi Konadu, John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Endowed Chair, Colgate University}&#8220;The book connects Rodney's thinking to his lived experiences across the world and the decades in which he lived. At a time when context is particularly essential, Zeilig's book provides an essential narrative that situates Rodney not only in the history of revolutionary thought, but also at our contemporary moment, arguing that Rodney's ideas make him a revolutionary not only for his but for our time.&#34; &#8212;Erin MacLeod, Vanier College
