Description

Essays highlighting socialist and left-wing traditions that helped shape US history in the direction of liberty and justice for all.

From the Marxist-tinged anarchism of the Haymarket martyrs to the Occupy Wall Street movement, these essays give a vibrant sense of the central role of the Left in social movements and struggles of the past and present, and highlights some of the amazing individuals, whose unstoppable energies generated remarkable transformations. Left Americana considers both the limitations and successes of Christian socialists, Communists, Maoists, Trotskyists and the 'New Left' activists of the '60s and '70s in creating profound social and political change.
