レビュー

Bayard Rustin to me is a civil rights leader whose writing are still relevant -- especially at the intersection of African-American and Gay Liberation civil rights movements. And, his insights about other civil rights efforts -- such as the women's civil rights movement -- were quite enlightening. For anyone interested in learning lessons about past civil rights movements of minority community members -- especially for activists in more recent civil rights movements (such as the immigration and transgender civil rights movements) -- this is definitely worth the read.

I had heard of Bayard Rustin as a "peripheral" organiser of the civil rights movement - and came to reading this thinking I would learn little but it is a powerful well written collection of his writings - I recommend it to anyone who is interested in Justice, Non-violence and civil rights.

This is probably the best book I've read all year. Rustin is so under-appreciated. Hopefully he will emerge as one of the most significant figures of the period. The horror of how he was treated by people seeking rights is sad, but I'm that much more grateful that he persevered.
