Driven by the Movement: Exploring JoNina Abron-Ervin's Three Decade Project

from Black Autonomy Podcast

Co-host Lorenzo Komboa Ervin interviews JoNina Abron-Ervin about her new book Driven by the Movement, which collects the stories of twenty rank-and-file people in the Black liberation struggle between 1965 and 1975. These activists came from across the US and all walks of life--single working mothers, clergy, students, teachers, military veterans--to organize against police brutality, poverty, hunger, substandard schools, and colonialism. Listen as JoNina recounts her struggles bringing the text to wide publication and details what she hopes the project will accomplish.  Buy this landmark text on AKpress.org or wherever books are sold.
