Beschreibung

<p><b>A collective portrait of the Black Power movement by radical journalist and former Black Panther JoNina Abron-Ervin</b></p><p><i>Driven by the Movement</i> collects the stories of twenty ordinary people who did extraordinary things for the Black liberation struggle during the pivotal decade of 1965-1975. These activists came from across the US and all walks of life--single working mothers, clergy, students, teachers, military veterans--to organize against police brutality, poverty, hunger, substandard schools, and colonialism in Africa.</p><p>Drawing from her own experience at the heart of the movement, JoNina Abron-Ervin's on-the-ground reporting offers a rare look into the pragmatism, optimism, compromise, and contradiction and the everyday acts of dedication that animated the Black Power era.</p><p>This new edition includes expanded material on the history of the<i> Black Panther</i> newspaper as a source of mass political education and on the Black Panther Party's legendary survival programs, such as its Free Breakfast for Children and healthcare programs.</p><p>A foreword by writer and organizer William C. Anderson connects two torchbearers of the Black radical tradition across generations.</p>
