Summary
"Radical Acts brings together four politically charged plays, opening with Duberman's first production, In White America, a depiction of the black struggle for freedom and human rights. Next, Mother Earth brings to life Emma Goldman, one of the past century's most famous revolutionaries. Posing Naked tells the true story of Smith College professor Newton Arvin,the most prominent literary critic of his day, who became the victim of homophobia in a 1960 police sting. And finally, Visions of Kerouac captures the spirit of the Beat generation, as centered on the relationships between Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, and Neal Cassady."--BOOK JACKET.
