Download Goddess of Anarchy: The Life and Times of Lucy Parsons, American Radical AudioBook Free
From a prize-winning historian, a new portrait of a fantastic activist and the turbulent time where she lived Goddess of Anarchy recounts the formidable life of the militant writer, orator, and agitator Lucy Parsons. Blessed to the enslaved woman in Virginia in 1851 and lifted in Texas - where she achieved her man, the Haymarket "martyr" Albert Parsons - Lucy was a fearless advocate of First Amendment rights, a champion of the working classes, and one of the most prominent information of African descent of her time. And yet her life was riddled with contradictions - she advocated violence without apology, concocted a Hispanic Indian personal information for herself, and ignored the plight of African Americans. Drawing on an abundance of new resources, Jacqueline Jones reveals not only the exceptional life of the famous American-born anarchist but also an authoritative bill of her times - from slavery through the fantastic Depression.
