A leading figure in the civil rights movement, Robert F. Williams advocated and practiced armed self-defense against racist mobs, the KKK, and the police in Monroe, North Carolina in the 1950s. His refusal to cave in to the white power structure also pushed him to the top of the U.S. governments most wanted list and into exile in Cuba and China in the 1960s. While in exile, Williams continued to fight for Black liberation through his publication The Crusader and radio program Radio Free Dixie which was broadcast from Cuba and heard throughout the south. Let It Burn is an interview with Williams in Tanzania, conducted by journalist Robert Cohen.
