The Radical Writings of Jack Nusan Porter - Paperback

by Jack Nusan Porter (Author)

Porter draws from the past to explain the present, walking the precarious bridge between allegiance to Israel and the Jewish people and the universal rights of all people. This collection combines theory, sociology, film studies, literary criticism, post-modern thought, and politics to understand our present situation.
