Why No Confederate Statues in Mexico
«Ishmael Reed is the purest literary troublemaker we currently have... a book that is arresting... always-bracing and readable." —Jeff Simon, Buffalo News
"One of 12 top books of 2019: Ishmael Reed builds on the theme of resisting white supremacy through the power of multi-racial coalitions with pugilistic essays that pull no punches.... His essay "White Nationalism's Last Stand" is so hopeful that it's worth the price of the ticket alone." —Michael Berry and D. Scot Miller, East Bay Express
"Since the mid-twentieth century, Ishmael Reed has been deep, abrasive, and didactic, an iconoclastic champion of what is "good" and a formidable critic of what is "bad" in domestic and transnational affairs. Reed is a fighter, a battered but undefeated fighter. Why No Confederate Statues in Mexico is a compelling record of his place in literary histories and moral struggles. It is a feast one consumes with grains of pepper and salt." —Jerry W Ward, Jr, New World Review»
