How the legendary debate between a civil rights firebrand and the father of modern conservatism illuminates America's racial divide

Nicholas Buccola's The Fire Is upon Us is the first book to tell the full story of the event, the radically different paths that led Baldwin and Buckley to it, and how the debate and the decades-long clash between the men illuminates the racial divide that continues to haunt AmericaProdukt The Fire Is Upon Us: James Baldwin, William F. Buckley Jr., and the Debate Over Race in America (Buccola Nicholas)(Paperback) označuje EAN kód 9780691210773.
