In Battle for Peace (The Oxford W. E. B. Du Bois) - The Story of My 83rd Birthday

In Battle for Peace frankly documents Du Bois''s experiences following his attempts to mobilize Americans against the emerging conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union. A victim of McCarthyism, Du Bois endured a humiliating trial-he was later acquitted-and faced political persecution for over a decade. Part autobiography and part political statement, In Battle for Peace remains today a powerful analysis of race in America.
