"The most important single volume from a black since "The Autobiography of Malcolm X"." --Julius Lester, "The New York Times Book Review"
The most important single volume from a black since "The Autobiography of Malcolm X." Julius Lester, "The New York Times Book Review""
"The power of George Jackson's personal story remains painfully relevant to our nation today, with its persisten racism, its hellish prisons, its unjust judicial system, and the poles of wealth and poverty that are at the root of all that. I hope the younger generation, black and white, will read "Soledad Brother."" Howard Zinn, author, "A People's History of the United States""

Soledad Brother - The Prison Letters Of George Jackson
Seller: Crappy Old Books, Barry, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Good. Soledad Brother: The Prison Letters of George Jackson (1971) by George Jackson ? Sold by Crappy Old Books Radical. Righteous. Razor-sharp. Soledad Brother is a searing collection of letters from George Jackson?Black Panther, political prisoner, and revolutionary thinker?written during his eleven years behind bars, mostly in solitary confinement. First published in 1971 by Penguin Books, these dispatches from inside California?s Soledad Prison explode with insight, anger, clarity, and a grim, poetic brilliance that still punches hard decades later. Jackson?s letters tackle racism, capitalism, and the American prison-industrial complex with an urgency that makes today?s headlines feel like grim déjà vu. Whether he?s writing to family, comrades, or lawyers, every word burns with unfiltered truth and a refusal to be silenced. This isn?t just prison writing?it?s a manifesto carved out under pressure. Condition: Pages dog-eared with purpose. Margins may contain scribbles from one of the book?s many furious past readers. Slight scent of rebellion. Crappy Old Books: Purveyors of truth, dust, and out-of-print rage. Fine copy, ever-so slight warp to spine and subtle marks on an indentation on front, but spine looks unread, solid binding and otherwise overall fine condition with the dings mentioned.
