In the Country of Brooklyn:
Inspiration to the World
In the Country of Brooklyn, filled with rare photos, is history at its very best--engaging, personal, fascinating--a social history and a history of social justice; an oral history of a land and its people spanning the twentieth and twenty-first centuries; a microcosm of how Americans there faced and defeated discrimination, oppression, and unjust laws, and fought for what was right. And the voices and stories are as amazing as they are varied.
