The Institute for the Study of the Science of Society Book Discussion the third Saturday of each month, at the Midnight Special Bookstore Third Street Promenade, Santa Monica 310 393 2923 Our book for Saturday, September 15 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. is The Wind Done Gone by Alice Randall More than any other source, Gone With the Wind created and perpetuated the myth of happy slaves and glamorous plantation life in pre-Civil War South. The Wind Done Gone, an unauthorized parody, explodes that myth, telling the story Cynara, born into slavery, the daughter of the plantation owner. Alluding to events in Mitchell�s novel but ingeniously and ironically transforming them, The Wind Done Gone is an emotionally complex story of a strong, resourceful black woman breaking away from the damaging world of the Old South to emerge as daughter, lover and mother. This book gives voice to those silenced and ignored in American history, telling the truth, at a time when historical truth is essential to finding a future of emancipation. Read the book and join us for a lively exchange of ideas with lessons profoundly relevant for today. Everyone is welcome. ****************************************************************************** The science of society (Marxism) describes the laws that govern the development of societies.
