-- Black nation :2013., Adult, Between the Lines Edition: eBook ed. Summary Note: "In the 1960s, for at least a brief moment, Montreal became what seemed an unlikely center of Black Power and the Caribbean left.

James, Stokely Carmichael, Miriam Makeba, Rocky Jones, and Walter Rodney. Within months of the Congress, a Black-led protest at Sir George Williams University (now Concordia) exploded on the front pages of newspapers across the country -- raising state security fears about Montreal as the new hotbed of international Black radical politics"--Provided by publisher.

c2009., AK Press Call No: BLK 824.52 A935y Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: "You Donœt Play With Revolution collects seven never-before-published lectures by Marxist cultural critic C.L.R. James, delivered during his stay in Montréal in 1967-1968. Ranging in topic from Marx and Lenin to Shakespeare and Rousseau to Caribbean history and the Haitian Revolution, these lectures demonstrate the staggering breadth and clarity of Jamesœ knowledge and interest. Little information exists in print on the critical period James spent working with West Indian intellectuals and students in Canada in the late 1960s; this collection highlights the themes we have come to associate with Jamesœ critical project and situates them in a new light. Readers just beginning to delve into Jamesœ work will find this collection accessible and engaging, an ideal introduction to a complex and multi-faceted body of scholarship. Editor David Austin has also included two seminal interviews produced with James during his stay in Canada, and a series of letters James exchanged with the West Indian university students who made these lectures possible.You Donœt Play With Revolution also includes an introduction by Robert A. Hill, co-founder of the C.L.R. James Study Circle and historical advisor to the new James archive at Columbia University." -Amazon.ca.
