Description

In 1967, race riots burned across America, fueled by white blindness and black rage. In Detroit, the fire burned hottest and brightest. Faced with unforgettable devastation, grassroots activists rose from the ashes to advance a radical social vision: blacks and whites working together toward a just society. ↵In What My Left Hand Was Doing, Joann Castle takes us into the heart of the movement, tracing her transformation from a naïve, white working-class mother of six young children into a passionate foot soldier in the radical Catholic, civil rights, and black self-determination movements. Her story is a searing, unflinching memoir of social justice activism and lessons learned that have relevance today. Includes an Activist Survival Guide.
