About this product
Product Information
In 1968, Safiya Bukhari witnessed an NYPD officer harassing a Black Panther for selling the organization's newspaper on a Harlem street corner. The young pre-med student felt compelled to intervene in defense of the Panther's First Amendment right; she ended up handcuffed and thrown into the back of a police car. The War Before traces Bukhari's lifelong commitment as an advocate for the rights of the oppressed. Following her journey from middle-class student to Black Panther to political prisoner, these writings provide an intimate view of a woman wrestling with the issues of her time--the troubled legacy of the Panthers, misogyny in the movement, her decision to convert to Islam, the incarceration of out spoken radicals, and the families left behind. Her account unfolds with immediacy and passion, showing how the struggles of social justice movements have paved the way for the progress of today.

Advertised as LIKE NEW but actually damaged in multiple places both inside and out. Listing says, "Buyer pays for return shipping." So, if sent back then we would lose money only to be without the book because postage costs more than its original purchase price. Bought here in good faith to support a small company whilst sourcing gift-worthy condition. Sadly, this item was misrepresented. No quality control check before it was mailed to us. Suggest shopping elsewhere.
