Paperback. Condition: New. More than any other black leader, H. Rap Brown, chairman of the radical Black Power organization Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), came to symbolize the ideology of black revolution. This autobiography-which was first published in 1969, went through seven printings and has long been unavailable-chronicles the making of a revolutionary. It is much more than a personal history, however; it is a call to arms, an urgent message to the black community to be the vanguard force in the struggle of oppressed people. Forthright, sardonic, and shocking, this book is not only illuminating and dynamic but also a vitally important document that is essential to understanding the upheavals of the late 1960s. University of Massachusetts professor Ekwueme Michael Thelwell has updated this edition, covering Brown's decades of harassment by law enforcement agencies, his extraordinary transformation into an important Muslim leader, and his sensational trial.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Second printing of the first hardcover edition from the Dial Press 1969 of this significant work of black revolutionary thought. Nice overall copy. From the home of a tobacco smoker, which in this case has left some visible toning around the edges and on the spine of the DJ. To the sensitive nose there is also a faint tobacco smell, but it is not egregious, in this sellers opinion. Binding is solid, tight, sound, and square. Interior is clean and free of markings, very minor toning to the page edges but hardly so. Boards firm and mostly clean, with some toning at the very edges. Dustjacket well intact, with aforementioned toning and some other minor scuffs and rubs. Now in brodart.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good Minus. First edition. 145pp. Octavo [21.5 cm] Red cloth over boards with the title stamped in black ink on the backstrip. Photographically illustrated endpapers. Spine ends a bit bruised. Rear board does not quite lay flat. In the dust jacket ($3.95 on inside flap), with mild toning, small closed and open tears to the edges, and the rear inside flap partially torn along the fold. Despite these flaws, the jacket still presents quite well. The story of the making of a revolutionary. The autobiography of American political activist H. Rap Brown (Jamin Al-Amin), a former Chairman of SNCC. Hubert "Rap" Brown (1943-2025) was a veteran of direct action. At the age of 15, he was responsible for organizing a student walkout at Southern High School in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Eight years later, he came together with local activists in the Alabama Black Belt to rise against white supremacy through the ballot box, which often meant engaging in direct confrontations with authorities. During Brown's tenure as Chairman of SNCC, he was instrumental in the renaming of SNCC which replaced "Nonviolent" with "National." Confrontations with authorities intensified to the point where the U.S. Congress passed an anti-riot act, known as the "Rap Brown Law," in 1968. Legal woes forced Brown to step down from SNCC, but he remained dedicated to the Movement. "This country was born of violence. Violence is as american as cherry pie. Black people have always been violent, but our violence has always been directed toward each other. If nonviolence is to be practiced, then it should be practiced in our community and end there." - H. Rap Brown, Detroit, 1967.
