Du Bois, Malcolm X, the Black Panther Party, Angela Davis, the Nation of Islam, the civil rights movement, Black feminism, Négritude, Afrocentrism, Black liberation theology, the Black Consciousness and Black Power movements; contemporary movements like Black Lives Matter have also been included in the tradition.
