Synopsis

Excerpt from The Cry for Justice: An Anthology of the Literature of Social Protest; The Writings of Philosophers, Poets, Novelists, Social Reformers, and Others Who Have Voices the Struggle Against Social Injustice

His anthology, I take it, is the first edition, the first gathering together of the body of the literature and art of the humanist thinkers of the world. As well done as it has been done, it will be better done in the future. There will be much adding, there will be a little subtract ing, in the succeeding editions that are bound to come. The result will be a monument of the ages, and there will be none fairer.

Since reading of the Bible, the Koran, and the Talmud has enabled countless devout and earnest right-seeking souls to be stirred and uplifted to higher and finer planes of thought and action, then the reading of this humanist Holy Book cannot fail similarly to serve the needs of groping, yearning humans who seek to discern truth and justice amid the dazzle and murk of the thought-chaos of the present-day world.

No person, no matter how soft and secluded his Own life has been, can read this Holy Book and not be aware that the world is filled with a vast mass of unfairness, cruelty, and suffering. He will find that it has been observed, during all the ages, by the thinkers, the seers, the poets, and the philosophers.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a powerful and moving anthology of writings that expose the harsh realities of labor throughout history. Through a diverse collection of poems, essays, and excerpts from novels, the author brings together voices from various eras and cultures to shed light on the struggles and injustices faced by working people. From the plight of farm laborers and factory workers to the dangerous conditions endured by miners and sailors, the book offers a poignant exploration of the human cost of industrialization and economic inequality. It delves into themes of poverty, exploitation, and the dehumanizing effects of relentless toil, while also highlighting the resilience, dignity, and hope that can be found within the working class. By presenting a historical tapestry of voices, this book underscores the enduring nature of these challenges and serves as a call to action for greater compassion, understanding, and social change. The author's insightful compilation ultimately reveals that the fight for fair labor practices and a more just society is an ongoing struggle that transcends time and place. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780243283606_0
