Soapbox Rebellion highlights the methodological obstacles to recovering a workers’ history of public address closely analyzes the impact of hobo oratorical performances and discusses the implications of the Wobblies’ free speech fights for understanding grassroots resistance and class struggle today-in an era of the decline of the institutional business union model and workplace contractualism. Matthew May coins the phrase Hobo Orator Union to characterize these collectives. Matthew May coins the phrase “Hobo Orator Union” to characterize these collectives. While the fights were not always successful, they did produce a novel form of fluid union organization that offers historians, labor activists, and social movement scholars a window into an alternative approach to what it means to belong to a union. The volatile spread and circulation of hobo agitation during these fights amounted to nothing less than a soapbox rebellion in which public speech became the principal site of the struggle of the few to exploit the many. ![]() Soapbox Rebellion, a new critical history of the free speech fights of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), illustrates how the lively and colorful soapbox culture of the “Wobblies” generated novel forms of class struggle.

For Kwan speaks mangled English, is cheerfully deaf to Olivia's sarcasm, and sees the dead with her "yin eyes."Įven as Olivia details the particulars of her decades-long grudge against her sister (who, among other things, is a source of infuriatingly good advice), Kwan Li is telling her own story, one that sweeps us into the splendor, squalor, and violence of Manchu China. And no one in Olivia's family is more embarrassing to her than her half-sister, Kwan Li. Olivia Laguni is half-Chinese, but typically American in her uneasiness with her patchwork family. The Hundred Secret Senses is an exultant novel about China and America, love and loyalty, the identities we invent and the true selves we discover along the way. ![]() ![]() ![]() First, I borrowed the standalone novel from my library and started to read it. This 800+ page book was declared “one of the Best of 2019,” and other readers who have managed to finish the book had nothing but positive things to say about it.

How to Write About Africa rrp 16.99 Description. I was responding to its “Africa” issue, which was populated by every literary bogeyman that any African has ever known, a sort of ‘Greatest Hits of Hearts of Fuckedness.’ It wasn’t the grimness that got to me, it was the stupidity. In a fit of anger, maybe even low blood sugar-it runs in the family-I spent a few hours one night at my graduate student flat in Norwich, England, writing to the editor of Granta. ![]() “How to Write about Africa” grew out of an email. ![]() ![]() ![]() I didn’t want it to end!
