Hard Cover. Ist Edition. In the late summer of 1949, a racist mob in upstate New York fiercely assaulted working class blacks and whites at an outdoor concert featuring African-American singer Paul Robeson. Howard Fast, a noted American novelist, was vacationing in the Peekskill area at the time and was appointed chairman of the concert. He was at the scene when concert-goers were attacked by men throwing broken bottles and rocks; swinging clubs and fence posts; and wielding knives and brass knuckles. Shouting racial epithets, the mob was held off only by a show of black and white unity.Fast was not only an eyewitness to these frightening events, but also, in each of two separate incidents was one the participants. His trained reporter's eye and narrative skill produced this compelling and detailed you-are-there account of the violence. The present edition recalls that long-forgotten incident--recognized today as a milestone in the civil rights movement.Dedication: To Paul RobesonForeword in Russian  In very good condition. Some discolouration on the front.Pages yellowing, but text clear.

Hardcover. Second Printing. The author's documented eyewitness account of the summer of 1949 racist attacks in Peekskill, New York on blacks and whites at outdoor concerts there. Howard Fast (1914 2003) a noted American writer, provides a gripping eye witness account of the violence; these attacks and their aftermath are considered a milestone in the civil rights movement. The concerts were organized as a benefit for the Civil Rights Congress, and featured African American singer Paul Robeson. Robeson was known for his strong pro-trade union stance, Communist affiliation and civil rights activism. Shortly after the attacks strong public outrage was expressed; people condemned the attacks as well as the failure of NY Governor Dewey and the police to protect citizens. Despite this condemnation the mainstream press and local officials blamed the victims of the violence for bringing it upon themselves. 8 1/2 x 11, 24pp, 8 pp b&w photographic illustrations.
