Seven Stories publishes books that present the factual reality of power relations in America, remedy the exclusion of African Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans from our history by publishing our visions, and stimulate intellectually for a new world view of equanimity and equality. Jose Manuel Havarro, La Salle University Students need the kind of critical thinking and plain truth written by authors like Noam Chomsky and the many other writers of Seven Stories Press books. . . . Most traditional textbooks are out of touch and, as someone who tries to present all relevant analyses of major global political topics, I especially appreciate the broad selection published by Seven Stories. Thanks to nontraditional publishing houses we can find alternative analyses to help prepare students for the world as it really is. Eloise Linger, Ph.D., SUNY College at Old Westbury Ive found that books from Seven Stories Press have been vital to me, as a historian and teacher. Authors like Noam Chomsky, Angela Davis, and Pratap Chatterjee provide students with information and interpretations they wont easily find elsewhere, and novels like The Man with the Golden Arm remain as important today as when they were published. If you want to learn, look at a Seven Stories catalog. Bob Buzzanco, University of Houston, Downtown As a professor dedicated to the values of liberal arts education, it is increasingly difficult to find honest publishers, in a mega corporate dominated industry, willing to publish critical, alternative perspectives to the totalizing ideological agenda of the global market economy. . . . I find solace in the integrity of publishers like Seven Stories, who are committed to social justice, alternative voices, and the pursuit of human enlightenment. Mark Seis, Fort Lewis College I just love the work you guys have been doing for many years. You are a professors dream, publishing works that many publishers would be too conservative to consider, on timely topics, classics that are/have been neglected, and in paperback. . . . I started using your publications for classes when they were in little booklets. All have been tremendous. Thanks for keeping on getting writers and ideas out there that might otherwise be sidelined.

The Class is a prime document of French postcolonial blues, though its relevance to American urban education could not be any greater if it had been made in the Bronx or Trenton or South Los Angeles.

W H AT W E L E Av E B E H I n d Derrick Jensen and Aric McBay

Jensen and McBay remind us that lifehuman and nonhumanwill not go on unless we do everything we can to facilitate the most basic process on earth, the root of sustainability: one beings waste must always become another beings food. This is a fierce bookIts basic premisethat were in worse trouble than we understand, and that a little change around the edges wont help is precisely the message that needs to get out.

The Problem of Civilization
Endgame, Volume 1 builds on a series of simple but increasingly provocative premises: for example, The needs of the natural world are more important than the needs of any economic system and Love does not imply pacifism. A brilliant weaving together of piercing analysis and elegant prose, Endgame leads us to see that we can re-imagine our world. [Endgame is] remarkable in its consideration of the present system of exploitation, destruction of the natural world, and, indeed, self-destruction. . . . Jensen raises vital questions that must be asked, and moreover, that must be answered. In this mad venture, we are all complicit, if only in our silence. Jensen shatters this silence. Mumia Abu-Jamal Jensen has proven himself a formidable thinker unafraid of showing us, with unsettling precision, the countless ways we are allowing ourselves and our planet to be killed.

A challenge to the destructive nihilism of writers like Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris who believe that there is no reality outside what can be measured using the tools of science, Dreams draws on the ideas and writings of Native American thinkers, the beliefs of radical sociologists, and Jensens own experiences tending the woods near his home to provide evidence of alternative ways of understanding reality.

In 2006, Alice Walker, working with Women for Women International, visited Rwanda and the eastern Congo to witness the aftermath of the genocide in Kigali. Three years later, invited by CODEPINK, she witnessed the devastation on Israel/Palestines Gaza Strip. Here is her testimonyand her attempt to find words to alleviate the moral horror of twenty-first century atrocity. Walker has done what few North American writers are able to: bear witness to atrocities in places that are geographically far away, but politically connected to the West. Feministe [Walker] insists, in this poetic, powerful essay, that we will reach out to one another, across all boundaries, to create a better world. Howard Zinn PAPER 978-1-58322-917-0 $9.95 80 PAgEs

Twenty-seven short writings provide examples of the kind of passionate engagement in justice and social causes that Zinn believed all historians, and indeed all citizens of whatever profession, need to have, standing in sharp contrast to the commonplace fiction of objective or neutral history.

FIdEL
A Graphic Novel Life of Fidel Castro

With compelling, accessible prose, Murillo surveys a long history of conflict that predates drugs, guerrillas, or terrorism. Rather, Murillo roots Colombias violent history in a refusal of elites to open up the political system to broad, democratic participation. Murillo encourages readers to look past a history of violence to find hope in social movements to persistent problems of poverty and social exclusion. Marc Becker, Truman State University Murillos insightful treatment of the conflict in Colombia is concise and extremely relevant for anyone wishing to understand the negative impact of contemporary US policy in Latin America.

Translated by Donald Nicholson-Smith

Taibo dissects the events surrounding the night of October 2, 1968, when at least 200 students were killed in a bloody showdown between demonstrators and the Mexican government in Tlatelolco Square. I introduced Paco Taibos 68 in my Global 1960s course last year, supplementing other texts on late60s Mexico. I found it gave students a profound sense of the experience of activism, and of the difficulties involved in its memorialization. Rather than incorporating the events into a passive narrative of trauma and its victims, Taibo II restores the lived possibilities of the incredible 100 or so days prior to the massacre: the risks, the excitement, the sensed potential for real transformations. Highly recommended. William Marotti, University of California, Los Angeles English PAPER 978-1-58322-608-7 $12.95 144 PAgEs spanish PAPER 978-1-58322-600-1 $12.95 144 PAgEs

Peter Plate taught himself to write fiction during eight years spent squatting in abandoned buildings. Since the release of One Foot Off The Gutter in 1996, he has been engaged in the project of using the techniques and motifs of genre fiction to map, over the course of these seven novels, the social and psychic geography of his native San Francisco: a geography of systematized injustice, police brutality, a hidden economy of informers and criminals, and the juggernaut logic of gentrification.

S A I LO R & Lu L A
The Complete Novels
The definitive collection of Barry Giffords seven-novel cycle about Sailor Ripley and Lula Pace Fortune, the Romeo and Juliet of the South. In a sharp fusion of imagination, pulp sensibility, and storytelling power, Gifford follows Sailor & Lula through a South haunted by violence and mystery, redeemed only by love. Barry Gifford invented his own American vernacular William Faulkner by way of B-movie film noir, porn paperbacks, and Sun Records rockabilly to forge the stealth-epic of Sailor & Lula. His accomplishment looks more and more like one of the permanent glories of recent storytelling, a set of crude masterpieces like Philip Gustons late paintings.

Part history lesson, part DIY guide, and part manifesto, Rise of the Videogame Zinesters shows us why videogames have the potential to impact our culture in new, surprising, and vital ways, and how people like usincluding and especially non-programmers, activists, and everyone outside the cultural mainstreamcan take the leap from player to creator and join the coming aesthetic revolution. PAPER 978-1-60980-372-8 $14.95 192 PAgEs With 60 B&W iMAgEs

The poetry of the ages is an argument with God, so it is said; but not many poets attempt it today. Stanley Moss does. In many voices, in lines rugged yet eloquent, in different places and with various leanings, he sings us songs of his unbelievable belief, his unlovable lovesongs of anguish, songs any of us would sing if we could. I find them disconcerting and extraordinarily moving. Hayden Carruth

In 1996, Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Gary Webb published a shocking series of articles in the San Jose Mercury News, exposing the CIAs link to Nicaraguan cocaine smuggled into the US by the Contras. Webbs bold, controversial reporting was the target of a famously vicious media backlash that ended his career as a mainstream journalist. Webbs findings were later confirmed and Webb himself vindicated by the investigation of the CIAs inspector general and the US Senate. His death in 2004, at the age of 49, was ruled to be a suicide.

A Lower East Side Film & Video History

ProJect cenSored
When I assign books to students, I look for things that will stop people in their tracks, shake them out of their apathy, and have them asking questions like is that true?, why havent I run across that before?, and what can people do about it? My longtime favorite is the Project Censored series. The books are democratically compiled, jargon free, and dynamite as far as opening peoples eyes on a wide variety of issues, including the media itself. Levon Chorbajian, University of Massachusetts, Lowell After years of searching for an effective text to teach freshman writing and research, I tried the Censored series. It is perfect! It engages students minds and makes the research process meaningful. I cant imagine a better text for a freshman writing/research course.

ALL THInGS CEnSOREd Mumia Abu-Jamal

Edited by Noelle Hanrahan
Imprisoned journalist Abu-Jamal presents in a series of essays a devastating social critique of contemporary institutions, such as the criminal justice system, and provides an insightful analysis of the state of civil liberties, immigration rights, and racism in the US. His essays on death row . . . have a chilling effect on students advocacy for the death penalty. What students always find surprising is Abu-Jamals intelligence, his powerful diction, and ability to empathize with others. For teachers, this book is an effective tool to explain the concept of systemic injustice, which MOVE members dared to challenge and whose efforts Abu-Jamal commemorates. Mechthild Nagel, SUNY Cortland

ARE PRISOnS OBSOLETE? Angela Y. Davis

Scholar and activist Angela Davis gives compelling reasons to rethink the carceral institution and jolts students of criminology who take prisons for granted. Focusing on the US prison industrial complex and its racist, capitalist historical roots, Davis also presents challenging views on prison abolition which make for great classroom discussion. Her analysis is clearly written and engages well students at the undergraduate level. Mechthild Nagel, SUNY Cortland

The Question of Lawyers Responsibility in Torture Cases

Wojciech Jagielski

Translated by Antonia Lloyd-Jones

On an average night in northern Uganda, tens of thousands of children head for the city centers to avoid capture and recruitment by the Lords Resistance Army (LRA), finding refuge on the floors of aid agencies or in the streets. Jagielski shows Uganda through the eyes of these children who, even after they have escaped the LRA, carry the weight of their own acts of murder on their young shoulders.

In three uncompromising essays, Iraqi dissident Haifa Zangana, former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark, and professor of sociology Thomas Ehrlich Reifer teach us how physically and psychologically insidious torture is, how deep a mark it leaves on both its victims and its practitioners, and how necessary it is for us as a society to hold torturers accountable.

To our everlasting shame, current controversy over the Vietnam War focuses on the question Could we have won? The real question should be What have we done? Focusing on one central element, chemical warfare, Wilcoxs harrowing study spells out the record with shattering clarity, relying on personal testimony, visual imagery, and cold fact. No decent person can fail to be appalled, or to be inspired to do we can to help the victims: the suffering people and the ravaged land. Noam Chomsky

From fighting for car safety in the 1960s, to opposing the policies of the World Trade Organization, to running for president, Nader continues to be a relentless force for grassroots activism and democratic change.

Ralph Nader is our indispensable voice of outrage against corporate corruption, invasion of privacy, and abuse of power.

What if a cadre of super-rich individuals tried to become a driving force to organize the citizens of this troubled nation? What if some of Americas most powerful individuals decided it was time to fix our government and return the power to the people? What could happen? In this first novel, a return to the American tradition of utopian fiction, Ralph Nader imagines the answer to the question. How many leftist books leave you feeling hopeful, even optimistic? How many offer you a picture of a new world that inspires you to act? . . . A genuine creative leap in genre and substance. Charles Derber, Tikkun I congratulate Ralph Nader for his outstanding and timely book. Most of my students are cynical regarding political parties. The idea that a new national political party could be created and it could play a central role in reforming our national government was new and exciting. Based on my success with Ralphs book last year, I plan to use it as a basic text to two new courses designed to explain how we can reform our national, state, and local governments. Clyde D.

Connecting the Dots between Environmental Toxins and Rising Autism Rates

Britta Belli

In this first book to address the compelling evidence that it is the pairing of environmental exposures with genetic susceptibilities that may be impacting the brain development of children, journalist Brita Belli brings us into the lives of three families with autistic children, each with different ideas about autism, as she interprets for readers compelling evidence that environmental toxinsincluding common exposures from chemicals mounting in our everyday livesmay be sparking this disorder in vulnerable children.

Based on personal journals from his years as a rehabilitation counselor, Paranoia & Heartbreak tells Golds personal story of coming to terms with people who have crossed over to the other side of their own humanity. [Gold] doesnt judge these wards of the state, he understands them, he takes their voiceless lives and makes them palpable. Jimmy Santiago Baca PAPER 978-1-58322-877-7 $19.95 352 PAgEs

TyPECASTInG
On the Arts and Sciences of Human Inequality
This monumental work of popular history exposes the pivotal developments that have made stereotypes a persistent, common language and reveals how stereotypes have served as the groundwork for power in the modern world. A plain-terms, no-holds-barred look at the long-running practice of science warped to serve prejudice. . . .An absolute must-have for sociology shelves, enthusiastically recommended for public and college libraries alike. Midwest Book Review I love Typecasting; my students love it. Theres something in it for everyone: history of science, art, and film, issues of race, European history, etc. . . . I would promote it in courses about race that want to go beyond race being equated with black and white. I encourage students to hold on to the book and use it as a reference for other courses.

T H E C u LT u R E S T R u G G L E Michael Parenti

One of Americas most astute and engaging political analysts shows us that culture is a changing process and the product of dynamic interplay between a wide range of social and political interests. Michael Parenti has educated generations of Americansincluding my ownon the merits of a radical world view and progressive politics. In The Culture Struggle, Parenti is at the top of his game. His arguments about the importance of culture and his debunking of dominant ideology is masterful and written with precise and crystal clear prose that few other writers can approach, let along equal.

Creating Community in Violent Times

Luis J. Rodrguez

Empowered by his own experiences as a peacemaker with gangs in L.A. and Chicago, Rodrguez makes concrete suggestions on how to approach the violence facing youth today. Rodrguez stunningly chronicles the history of gangs in the US, showing that this problem, far from being unique, is part and parcel of American culture. Hearts and Hands is a direct challenge to those who think they know the story of gang culture. . . . A mind-opening revelation.

Some time ago I went to the library, which is called the Quimper Public Library. The librarian . . . scowled meaningfully on seeing me in my peasant smock and hat enter the sanctum sanctorum where he reigns like a god. When I told him I wanted to consult a certain work on astronomy by Flammarion, he burst into Jupiterian laughter, and with no further response than that sidesplitting guffaw, he shoved me toward a dim recess saying, Here, look, there are some good novels here, pick one; that will do you nicely. There was indeed a pile of old discarded books. I picked one up at random . . . I was brave enough to return several times but, met by those same scowls and rejections, and seeing clearly that the presence of a peasant was shaming for such a place, especially for the grand personages who frequented it and for the autocrat who reigned there, I was obliged to give up. But that episode showed me once again in what esteem the lower class is held by all those bourgeois, grown rich on the sweat of that population, and by all those charlatan priests who suck its blood from the cradle to the grave. from memoirs of a breton peasant
