Un saggio preciso, avvincente, che restituisce l'entusiasmo di una stagione del Novecento ormai entrata nel mito. Episodi della lotta per i diritti civili degli afroamericani si alternano al racconto delle vite di pensatori, di attivisti fin qui noti solo agli esperti, che hanno preceduto Malcom X e Martin Luther King, consentendo loro di diventare ciò che sono stati.

"Everyone is female, and everyone hates it." So begins Andrea Long Chu’s genre-defying investigation into sex and lies, desperate artists and reckless politics, the smothering embrace of gender and the punishing force of desire.
