Gerald Horne’s excellent interview “Race to Revolution –The U.S. and Cuba during Slavery and Jim Crow” from www.wort-fm.org‏

This was an excellent interview, and I’m ordering the book now.  FYI, I was already able to hear this as a rebroadcast, from www.wort-fm.org, by clicking on Archives, and then finding the show “”A Public Affair” on the schedule for July 30, at 12:01pm (it’s up “until Sept., 27”). c. 45 min.  Highly recommended!

Prof. Gerald Horne is an outstanding African-American historian & also a lawyer who was active in the NLG. His recent book on the American Revolution in context of slavery has provoked much re-thinking. This interview is on his new book focusing on US & Cuba, again based on the centrality of racism and control in our history: “Race to Revolution –The U.S. and Cuba during Slavery and Jim Crow.
