| Description: |
Mumia Abu-Jamal's essential perspectives on black experience, race relations, freedom, justice, social change, and the future of American society. |
| Synopsis: |
Black history month promo.Comparable to Mumia's All Things Censored, in terms of broad appeal, which editor Greg Ruggiero published with Seven Stories and sold 30,000 copies in hard cover. Mumia is the world's most renowned political prisoner. A large and committed support base for his freedom, writings and perspectives continues to grow as a result of his intellectual output and a constant flow of support work, media and films about him and what he represents as an imprisoned black journalist and intellectual.Johanna Fernandez has access to politically engaged celebrities and hip hop artists, speaks in public and at conferences often, and has enormous credibility in social justice circles. Likely endorsements and event support from: Danny Glover, Alice Walker, EL Doctorow, Mos Def, Michelle Alexander, Chris Hedges, Harry Belafonte, Dick Gregory, Susan Sarandon, Amy Goodman, Robin DG Kelly, Immortal Technique (hip hop group), M-1 (hip hop), Chuck D of Public Enemy, Jay ZWhat makes this book particularly marketable is that it is accessible. Each of the 100 commentaries is short, focused, and well argued.Most of the pieces have never been published in any form. Most were written to be heard as radio commentaries, commencement speeches or as podcasts. |
