Description: Anarchism and the Black Revolution by William C. Anderson, Joy James, Lorenzo Kom’boa Ervin Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A revolutionary classic written by a living legend of Black Liberation Publisher Description A powerful - even startling - book that challenges the shibboleths of white anarchism. Its analysis of police violence and the threat of fascism are as important now as they were at the end of the 1970s. Perhaps more so - Peter James Hudson, Black Agenda ReportAnarchism and the Black Revolution first connected Black radical thought to anarchist theory in 1979. Now amidst a rising tide of Black political organizing, this foundational classic written by a key figure of the Civil Rights movement is republished with a wealth of original material for a new generation.Anarchist theory has long suffered from a whiteness problem. This book places its critique of both capitalism and racism firmly at the centre of the text. Making a powerful case for the building of a Black revolutionary movement that rejects sexism, homophobia, militarism and racism, Lorenzo Komboa Ervin counters the lies and distortions about anarchism spread by its left- and right-wing opponents alike.New material includes an interview with writer and activist William C. Anderson, as well as new essays, and a contextualizing biography of the authors inspiring life. Author Biography Lorenzo Komboa Ervin is an American writer, activist and black anarchist. He is a former member of SNCC, the Black Panther Party and Concerned Citizens for Justice. Following an attempt to frame him on weapons charges and for threatening the life of a Ku Klux Klan leader, Ervin hijacked a plane to Cuba in February 1969. While in Cuba, and later Czechoslovakia, Ervin grew disillusioned with the authoritarianism of state socialism. Captured by the CIA in Eastern Europe, he was extradited to the US, put on trial and sentenced to life in prison in 1970. He was introduced to anarchism whilst in prison, inspiring him to write Anarchism and the Black Revolution in 1979. Released after 15 years, Ervin remains politically active.William C.
