At the end of the month Firestorm Books will be hosting journalist and former Black Panther JoNina Abron-Ervin for a virtual conversation with author Robyn Maynard! Together they'll be discussing the new and revised edition of JoNina's "Driven By the Movement," recently released by AK Press.

"Driven by the Movement: Reports from the Black Power Era" collects the stories of twenty ordinary people who did extraordinary things for the Black liberation struggle during the pivotal decade of 1965-1975. These activists came from across the US and all walks of life—single working mothers, clergy, students, teachers, military veterans—to organize against police brutality, poverty, hunger, substandard schools, and colonialism in Africa.

Register for free and find your copy of "Driven by the Movement" at https://firestorm.coop/events/3442-reports-from-the-black-power-era.html. Can't make the event live? Register anyway and we'll send you the recording to enjoy at your convenience.
