Douglass<\/a>, Ellison<\/a> and Marley<\/a> lived on racial frontiers. Their interactions with mixed audiences made them key figures in an interracial consciousness and culture, integrative ancestors who can be claimed by more than one group. An abolitionist who criticized black racialism; the author of Invisible Man<\/a><\/em>, a landmark of modernity and black literature; a musician whose allegiance was to \u201cGod’s side, who cause me to come from black and white.\u201d The lives of these three men illustrate how our notions of \u201crace\u201d have been constructed out of a repression of the interracial.<\/p>\n
