A collection of columns from writers' newsletter, The wright stuff.
"Sherwin Ellis, the young black man charged with the murder of the hotel owner Ed Covey, sits in jail, burning with anger. His only hope is Kwame Taylor, a brilliant attorney from Houston, who sends civil rights lawyer Bil Mermann to cover jury selection. When Taylor has to bow out of the case, Mermann finds himself defending his first-ever capital murder case. With the town's most prominent lawyer, Hayden Shipley, stepping in as special prosecutor and the Judge counting off the years until he can score an appointment to the Court of Appeals, the Ellis case looks like a slam-dunk conviction. The case threatens to explode the uneasy balance of power between the town's white and black communities. But then the town's lone Communist becomes an alternate on the jury. Mermann stumbles upon some of the town's long-kept secrets and San Bernardo is never the same"--Cover.

Decolonization revolutionized the international order during the twentieth century. Yet standard histories that present the end of colonialism as an inevitable transition from a world of empires to one of nations—a world in which self-determination was synonymous with nation-building—obscure just how radical this change was. Drawing on the political thought of anticolonial intellectuals and statesmen such as Nnamdi Azikiwe, W.E.B Du Bois, George Padmore, Kwame Nkrumah, Eric Williams, Michael Manley, and Julius Nyerere, this important new account of decolonization reveals the full extent of their unprecedented ambition to remake not only nations but the world. Adom Getachew shows that Afr...
