Описание: Freedom`s Mirror follows the reverberations of the Haitian Revolution in Cuba, where the violent entrenchment of slavery occurred at the very moment that the Haitian Revolution provided a powerful example of slaves destroying slavery. By linking two stories that are usually told separately, Ada Ferrer sheds fresh light on both of these crucial moments in Caribbean and Atlantic history.
Описание: Franklin D. Roosevelt`s Four Freedoms address was more than a great speech. The way FDR framed what Americans fought for during World War II-specifically for freedom of speech, freedom from want, freedom of religion and freedom from fear-and the way our understanding of those freedoms has evolved over time, helped define how Americans conceived of themselves from the 1940s to our present day.

Описание: How could enslaved women assert legal claims to personhood, wages, and virtue when the law regarded them as mere property? Fractional Freedoms tells the story of enslaved legal actors within the landscape of Hispanic urban slavery, focussing on women who were socially disadvantaged, economically active and extremely litigious.
Описание: Here is the first biography of Mario Savio, the brilliant leader of Berkeley's Free Speech Movement, the largest and most disruptive student rebellion in American history. Savio risked his life to register black voters in Mississippi in the Freedom Summer of 1964 and did more than anyone to bring daring forms of non-violent protest from the civil rights movement to the struggle for free speech and academic freedom on American campuses. Drawing upon previously unavailable Savio papers, as well as oral histories from friends and fellow movement leaders, Freedom's Orator illuminates Mario's egalitarian leadership style, his remarkable eloquence, and the many ways he embodied the youthful idealism of the 1960s. The book also narrates, for the first time, his second phase of activism against Reaganite Imperialism in Central America and the corporatization of higher education. Including a generous selection of Savio's speeches, Freedom's Orator speaks with special relevance to a new generation of activists and to all who cherish the '60s and democratic ideals for which Savio fought so selflessly.
