City with a Chance
Author: Frank Aukofer
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780874620214
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
With unrest around the country and riots in Newark and Detroit, it became known as "the long, hot summer" of 1967. Milwaukee experienced a riot, too, and then became the biggest civil rights story in the nation as a white Catholic priest, along with a bunch of kids from the inner city, conducted marathon marches and demonstrations for an open housing law. It was a defining period, though not the end, of years of civil rights protests in Beertown, USA, against de facto school segregation, discrimination by a private club whose roster included members of the white power structure, and public officials who refused to recognize that a substantial number of people were still outsiders in their own city. Frank Aukofer walks us by the hand through the civil rights struggles in Milwaukee during the 1960s. Possessing all the qualities of a born reporter, he is able to tie up political, religious, social and personal aspects of these times into a complete history.

Book Description
JACK LONDON (1876-1916), American novelist, born in San Francisco, the son of an itinerant astrologer and a spiritualist mother. He grew up in poverty, scratching a living in various legal and illegal ways -robbing the oyster beds, working in a canning factory and a jute mill, serving aged 17 as a common sailor, and taking part in the Klondike gold rush of 1897. This various experience provided the material for his works, and made him a socialist. "The son of the Wolf" (1900), the first of his collections of tales, is based upon life in the Far North, as is the book that brought him recognition, "The Call of the Wild" (1903), which tells the story of the dog Buck, who, after his master ́s death, is lured back to the primitive world to lead a wolf pack. Many other tales of struggle, travel, and adventure followed, including "The Sea-Wolf" (1904), "White Fang" (1906), "South Sea Tales" (1911), and "Jerry of the South Seas" (1917). One of London ́s most interesting novels is the semi-autobiographical "Martin Eden" (1909). He also wrote socialist treatises, autobiographical essays, and a good deal of journalism.
