A People's Guide to Greater Boston

Bag om A People's Guide to Greater Boston

"More than just a guide book, this is truly a people's history of Boston and its surroundings. Theoretically rich and beautifully illustrated, it tackles race, inequality, environment, settler colonialism, labor, and more as it takes readers on detailed tours of the area's well-known and unknown landmarks. A must for anyone who wants to get beyond tourist boosterism and glimpse the complicated histories just beneath the city's surface."--Aviva Chomsky, Professor of History, Linked Labor Histories: New England, Colombia, and the Making of a Global Working Class "This People's Guide brings into focus the rich history of radical organizing in the greater Boston area, providing a comprehensive look at the places where organizers lived, worked, and played. Tracing the steps of the innumerable people who, mostly unknown, contributed mightily to the wave of movement building and organizing is especially important--reminding us that ordinary people create extraordinary history."--Demita Frazier, founding member of the Combahee River Collective, coauthor of the Combahee River Collective Statement
