The Essence of Reparations
by Amiri Baraka
Price: US$15
Paperback, American history/Black studies, 44 pp., 5"x7.5" (2003)
ISBN: 0-913441-60-0

Baraka sees the struggle for reparations not as end in itself but as part of a wider struggle for full citizenship and equal rights in a program for genuine democratic transformation in the United States. In this context he poses issues that go way beyond the challenges of reparations. One does not have to agree with his ideological framework to appreciate the timeliness and urgency of his case for reparations.
