Hamilton was born in Muskogee, Oklahoma. He graduated from Roosevelt University in 1951,[2] and went on to earn a masters degree in 1957 from the University of Chicago.[1] He joined the Tuskegee Institute faculty in 1958, but his contracted there was terminated in 1960,[2] and he returned to the University of Chicago, where he earned a Ph.D. in 1964.[1] He held faculty positions at Rutgers University, Lincoln University (Pennsylvania), and Roosevelt University before joining the Columbia University faculty in 1969.[2] Hamilton retired from the Columbia faculty in 1998 and later moved to Chicago.
His most noted work is Black Power: The Politics of Liberation in America, written with Stokely Carmichael.[1][2]
Cashmore and Jennings argue that Hamilton and Carmichael were the first to use the term institutional racism in a systematic fashion.[3]
