"Thompson's engrossing book is essential for any collection on the history, politics, or society of post–World War II America." ? Library Journal
In Whose Detroit?, Heather Ann Thompson focuses in detail on the African American struggles for full equality and equal justice under the law that shaped the Motor City during the 1960s and 1970s. Even after Great Society liberals committed themselves to improving conditions in Detroit, Thompson argues, poverty and police brutality continued to plague both neighborhoods and workplaces. Frustration with entrenched discrimination and the lack of meaningful remedies not only led black residents to erupt in the infamous urban uprising of 1967, but it also sparked myriad grassroots challenges to postwar liberalism in the wake of that rebellion.
With deft attention to the historical background and to the dramatic struggles of Detroit's residents, and with a new prologue that argues for the ways in which the War on Crime and mass incarceration also devastated the Motor City over time, Thompson has written a biography of an entire nation at a time of crisis.

Описание:
Based on a true event, an incredible tale of a woman locked up in a psychiatric ward against her will and a daughter who refuses to give up searching for her.
When Mattie McAllister was eight years old, her father told her that her mother, Heather, had died while a patient at Milledgeville asylum. A father wouldn't lie about such a thing, or would he?
Mattie and her brother are put into foster care by their uncaring father and manage to survive until rescued by their Aunt Tess. After Mattie completes her degree in nursing, she decides to take a job as a psychiatric nurse on the new crisis stabilization unit at Milledgeville asylum, the place where she believes her mother died. She meets an assortment of unlikely characters hired to work on the new unit: an erratic supervisor, a cute ex-Dominican monk, and a beautiful clinical social worker who has terrible luck with men.
At the same time Mattie is adjusting to her new job, Heather is living on Ward A, the worst regressed women's ward in the entire hospital. She sleeps in a dorm along with ninety other women, most of whom are psychotic. She does have one good friend, Lucinda, also completely sane, and their friendship keeps Heather grounded during the most trying of circumstances.
Mattie had been told her mother died at Milledgeville, but she has always wondered what caused her death. Did she have a rare genetic illness? or perhaps she had an accident? Tuberculosis was rampant in the hospital in 1958, the year her mother was admitted. Did she succumb to it?
When Mattie learns there are old ledgers in the hospital library, she visits the library and pores over them until she finds Heather's name. She is astonished to discover her mother had not been classified as dead, and was never discharged-no, she is very much alive But what ever has happened to her? Where can she be? All traces of her have disappeared. There are more than 12,000 patients in the mammoth hospital. The search is on
What Ever Happened to Heather looks at the heartbreak caused by mental illness, the value of women's friendships, and the long-term effects of grief and loss-and there is a reminder that for every wrongdoing, every act causing another person suffering or misfortune, karma is patiently waiting, right around the corner.

Описание: WINNER OF THE 2017 PULITZER PRIZE IN HISTORY WINNER OF THE 2017 BANCROFT PRIZE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST * LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE FINALIST * NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK FOR 2016 * NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE BOSTON GLOBE, NEWSWEEK, KIRKUS, AND PUBLISHERS WEEKLY THE FIRST DEFINITIVE HISTORY OF THE INFAMOUS 1971 ATTICA PRISON UPRISING, THE STATE'S VIOLENT RESPONSE, AND THE VICTIMS' DECADES-LONG QUEST FOR JUSTICE On September 9, 1971, nearly 1,300 prisoners took over the Attica Correctional Facility in upstate New York to protest years of mistreatment. Holding guards and civilian employees hostage, the prisoners negotiated with officials for improved conditions during the four long days and nights that followed. On September 13, the state abruptly sent hundreds of heavily armed troopers and correction officers to retake the prison by force. Their gunfire killed thirty-nine men--hostages as well as prisoners--and severely wounded more than one hundred others. In the ensuing hours, weeks, and months, troopers and officers brutally retaliated against the prisoners. And, ultimately, New York State authorities prosecuted only the prisoners, never once bringing charges against the officials involved in the retaking and its aftermath and neglecting to provide support to the survivors and the families of the men who had been killed. Drawing from more than a decade of extensive research, historian Heather Ann Thompson sheds new light on every aspect of the uprising and its legacy, giving voice to all those who took part in this forty-five-year fight for justice: prisoners, former hostages, families of the victims, lawyers and judges, and state officials and members of law enforcement. Blood in the Water is the searing and indelible account of one of the most important civil rights stories of the last century. (With black-and-white photos throughout)
