Overview
For the past thirty-five years, activist and historian Martin Duberman has been witness to our country’s tumultuous confrontations with a formidable array of shifting issues - equality for people of color, the feminist movement, the anti-war movement, the gay/lesbian and AIDS political formations. This selection of his previously published and revised work charts Duberman’s own lifeline as well as those of the varied movements that tried to change the country’s priorities and equalize its privileges. All of these essays, articles, and reviews, first published in such periodicals as The Nation, the New York Times, and The Harvard Gay and Lesbian Review, have been amended for this publication and divided into pertinent categories. Duberman has written a special introduction, as well as introductory essays to each section of the book.
