Waldo E. Martin Jr. sa zameriava na africko-americkú intelektuálnu a kultúrnu históriu, najmä z 19. a 20. storočia. Jeho práca skúma, ako černošské hnutie a kultúra premenili americkú spoločnosť v povojnovom období. Martin analyzuje hlboké myšlienkové prúdy a kultúrne prejavy, ktoré formovali africko-americkú identitu a ovplyvňovali širší americký kontext. Jeho prístup k dejinám je založený na detailnom štúdiu a širokom povedomí o historickom vývoji.
