WHERE WE STAND

Voices of Southern Dissent.Edited by Anthony Dunbar. Published By The NewSouth Books

Book cover

Here is a fresh and strong appeal from the South, to redeem the best of American values in our government. An amazing collection of authors takes an expert look at what one essay calls 'the Southernization of American Polities' and stands fearlessly against the South of George W. Bush and its Yan¬kee allies and apologists. Witty, reasoned, uncompromising, and deeply informed, Where We Stand comes none too soon."— SEAN WILENTZ, Princeton University Director of American Studies and Dayton -Stockton Professor of History

"There is a long tradition of courageous Southerners who have stood up against the dominant values of (he nation and the South and spoken out against war and racism- Here is an extraordinary group of writers from every part of the South who embody that tradition and give us, at a time when we need it most, voices that ring out eloquently for peace and justice." — HOWARD ZINN, author of A Peoples History of the United Slain

"The South nourishes a special kind of liberalism—more patient and courteous than that of the North, but also tempered by struggle to a steely resilience. You'll find it beautifully voiced in Where We Stand, a book that has taught me, for the first time, to take pride in the region I now call home." — BARBARA EHRENREICH, author of Nickel and Dime* On (Not) Getting Along in America

"Where there is no vision, the people perish. We are perishing, and voices are rising across the land. These are among them. We would do well to listen and consider." — WILL CAMPBELL, civil rights veteran and author of Brother la a Dragonfly

"It may seem that a Magnolia Curtain has descended across the South. As in old times there, it is claimed that only one opinion and one party have any credence and right. But the writers in Where We Stand are shafts of light breaking through that monopoly. The dissenting voices of today, like those of progressive South¬erners before them, are in fact the prevailing voices of the future." - SIDNEY BLUMENTHAL, former senior advisor to President Bill Clinton.
