Radicals in America is a masterful history of controversial
dissenters who pursued greater equality, freedom and democracy -
and transformed the nation. Written with clarity and verve,
Radicals in America shows how radical leftists, while often
marginal or ostracized, could assume a catalytic role as effective
organizers in mass movements, fostering the imagination of
alternative futures. Beginning with the Second World War, Radicals
in America extends all the way down to the present, making it the
first comprehensive history of radicalism to reach beyond the
sixties. From the Communist Party and the Black Panther Party for
Self-Defense, its coverage extends to the Battle of Seattle and
Occupy Wall Street. Each chapter begins with a particular life
story, including a Harlem woman deported in the McCarthy era, a gay
Japanese-American opponent of the Vietnam War, and a Native
American environmentalist, vignettes that bring to life the
personal within the political.
