Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. A comprehensive collection of writings from journalist, lecturer, anti-lynching activist, and early civil rights advocate Ida B. Wells. This is the latest addition to the African American classics series edited by Henry Louis Gates, Jr., featuring Twelve Years a Slave.The broadest and most comprehensive collection of writings available by an early civil and women's rights pioneerSeventy-one years before Rosa Parks's courageous act of resistance, police dragged a young black journalist named Ida B. Wells off a train for refusing to give up her seat. The experience shaped Wells's career, and-when hate crimes touched her life personally-she mounted what was to become her life's work: an anti-lynching crusade that captured international attention.This volume covers the entire scope of Wells's remarkable career, collecting her early writings, articles exposing the horrors of lynching, essays from her travels abroad, and her later journalism.The Light of Truthis both an invaluable resource for study and a testament to Wells's long career as a civil rights activist.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators. Through brilliant social analysis, the author exposed lynching as part of a larger framework of subjugation in which white people used violence as a deliberate tactic to combat black economic progress in the southern USA. This book tells her story. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
