tocupine's review against another edition

A couple of months ago I did not know who Paul Robeson was. I heard about this book in this video by Rad Reads and it sounded interesting (along with other books mentioned in the video). Robeson's powerful and optimistic attitude on the rights of African American people and the working class is inspiring, he was truly an amazing individual. Usually I try to set time in a day to read but this book was an exception and I basically read it all in one go. Just a fantastic book.

His optimistic attitude is probably what struck me the most. He truly believes in the power of the Black & working class people of America. Sad to me that we haven't made as much progress as he had hoped for, but definitely inspired some hope for the future. He also just has such unique experiences as a black man/celebrity/communist who is very active in the international community. Such a good read.
