What would happen if science gave Black Americans the choice to become white? Mirroring Wallace Thurman’s The Blacker the Berry: A Novel of Negro Life , Black No More: Being an Account of the Strange and Wonderful Workings of Science in the Land of the Free, AD 1933-1940 , is one of the first Afrofuturistic novels ever published. On New Year's Eve, Max Disher’s romantic advances are rejected on the basis that he is a Black man. Come New Year’s Day, the answers for his frustration appear in the form of an announcement about a new scientific procedure called, “Black-No-More.” Believing that his life will have much more fortune in white skin he goes through with the treatment—changing his name to “Matthew Fisher,” the newly-made white Max has to decide what it means to live and breathe on the other side of the color line. Professionally typeset with a beautifully designed cover, this edition of Black No More: Being an Account of the Strange and Wonderful Workings of Science in the Land of the Free, AD 1933-1940 is a reimagining of a Harlem Renaissance staple for the modern reader.
