Publisher's Synopsis
Professor Donald Gutierrez's extensive writings on social justice have been collected here in a passionate appeal for sensitivity, change and, most importantly, action in confronting government abuses and social inequity at home and abroad. These 48 essays and reviews of books are presented in four sections: "State Terrorism - My Country Must Not Torture in My Name," "War and Democracy - War On Democracy," "Business as Usual - Greed, Racism and Genocide," and "Power of the Pen - Iconoclasts to the Rescue." Heartfelt, informed and articulate, Gutierrez raises a voice of moral conscience too often lacking in today's public discourse. Winner, Philosophy Book Book, 2013 NM-AZ Book Awards.
