Strike That Changed New York Blacks, Whites, and the Ocean Hill-Brownsville Crisis

"The great strength of this book...lies not so much in Podair's explicit arguments. Instead, the biggest contribution he makes is the evidence he amasses of the larger historical context of the Ocean Hill-Brownsville debacle....We now have a movingly thorough and fair-minded account of the Ocean Hill-Brownsville crisis that neither scapegoats black militants nor slams white liberals. Given how this story tends to get handed down, that's no small feat."Podair, Jerald E. is the author of 'Strike That Changed New York Blacks, Whites, and the Ocean Hill-Brownsville Crisis', published 0016 under ISBN 9780300081220 and ISBN 0300081227.
