In.com received the following note. Can anyone help him? Send to me at mikedjya...@msn.com I write you because I'm also a historian, and in the coming semester I will be teaching contemporary American history at the University of Copenhagen. Recently your magazine included an interview on Fred Hampton (http://www.monthlyreview.org/091201haas.php), which was translated into Danish in The New Clarté. I'm curious if there has been done any historical research into the many radical off-springs from the civil rights movement in the US in the 1960's (like Blackstone Rangers, Young Lords, Young Patriots, etc.)? I know some of these groups later degenerated into criminal, non-political, gangs, but still I think it could be very interesting for my students to get to know about this very diverse movement. Of course, if you have any recommendations for me with respect to historical books on the civil right movement in general, the Black Panther Party, or black national groups from the same period, I will also be very interested. Thanks to anyone who can help. michael yates ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.econ.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
