The New York Times calls Black Power 50 "a wide-ranging look in text and images at the movement’s political and cultural manifestations" in their "10 New Books We Recommend This Week" feature
In his review of the book Rembert Browne says "Black Power 50 serves as an excellent textbook, one that not only covers all the bases but also dives into aspects of the movement that have received scarce attention."
