		<description>&lt;p&gt;WRT reparations, corporations have always fought for their legal right as ”persons.” It’s the cornerstone of their right to bribe/contribute to political campaigns. In this context, it’s that ”personhood,” that might injure their position to say that they are no longer responsible for their corporate ancestors.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;“One of the many great things about SLAVERY BY ANOTHER NAME is that it puts faces and names to the oppressors/murders”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;SLAVERY BY ANOTHER NAME aka   “Corporate Servitude,”  a  sequel!   How corporations leverage government, the American people and manipulate the rule of law to ensure profit, at life’s expense.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I understand the well thought out positions on reparations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;FWIW, Xtianity has a lot say about making restitution. If there isn’t restitution, (at least partial or at least the attempt) there isn’t forgiveness. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today, just one example, Big Pharma routinely pays Medical doctors to pretend to be authors of studies/articles they didn’t write. The studies almost unanimously are written against the public health, but in favor of the corporation’s profit. One of the many great things about SLAVERY BY ANOTHER NAME is that it puts faces and names to the oppressors/murders. Those people have descendants and that may have a quality of deterrence???&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;This is OT but not really,&lt;br /&gt;
I have come to the conclusion that Massachusetts has been targeted for, at least, the last eight years to criminalize our young men.  Police brutality and trumping up of charges has frightened ALL parents: black, Asian, Arab and white.&lt;br /&gt;
Our mistake?&lt;br /&gt;
Kennedy,&lt;br /&gt;
Frank,&lt;br /&gt;
Markey,&lt;br /&gt;
Kerry&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our kids have paid dearly.&lt;br /&gt;
And we have begun to mobilize.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;While I do not think I can use the whole book in my classes, I am certainly looking at using excerpts and will now order it for myself.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks for the reply. I’ve ordered your book and am excited to read it. I hadn’t known about the Lowndes affair.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Stampp and Litwak helped me learn to think critically, teaching more than U.S. history thereby. I was lucky, but unfortunately too young at the time to fully appreciate it. (I think I had Stampp as prof at end of his career. He died only recently, but when I took his class around 79, he was already in his late 60s.)&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Indeed.  The reality is that all of us benefit in a myriad of ways from these programs, including increased economic productivity, lowered crime, and fewer social problems.  Unfortunately, too many people cannot see past their own narrow, immediate self interest.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Marketing stuff that is worth what you pay for it. I hope Random House tries to market this to high schools and colleges. Economics professors,  history, theology, philosohy (ethcis) it’s extremely relevant. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I didn’t hear about your work, or the book, or the Pulitzer, until I saw the book salon here at FDL. Unions should be buying it for their locals. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OT, I HATE playing the identity card, but SLAVERY BY ANOTHER NAME certainly warrants it. Keith Olbermann was a huge fan of Buck O’Neil. Both he and Rachel Maddow frequently have as a guest, a Princeton Poly Sci professor, Melissa Harris-Lacewell. Because she’s attractive and only about 90% European American, she is permitted to speak about ethnic issues. If someone from Random House called her, she might be helpful in getting you on???&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you know, because you are 100% European American, you have LEVERAGE that so many others do not. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you again.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
