This review is from: Lessons from the Damned: Class Struggle in the Black Community (Paperback)

A thoughful balanced view of oppression by those who live it, Lessons from the Damned is a must read for all those interested in Black liberation movements. The book relates the different experiences of youth, women, and working poor in relating to their alienation from school and work place. Starting from how they became conscious of their situation to strategies such as setting up freedom schools the book will impress the reader with its jargon free breezy style. Long out of print (a shame in itself) Times Change Press has brought it back- It will be a classic for historians in Black culture and activists.
