AT BOOKWORKS

Gloria J. Browne-Marshall will discuss her book “A Protest History of the United States” at 6 p.m. Tuesday, July 1, at Bookworks.

The book opens with Indigenous peoples’ resistance to European colonization in pre-colonial America, and continues through modern times to look at Muhammad Ali’s refusal to be inducted into the military for his opposition to the Vietnam War; David Buckel, an LGBTQ+ rights lawyer and environmental activist, who self-immolated to protest the use of fossil fuels; and climate change demonstrations.

The author draws on legal documents, archival material, government documents and secondary sources in an attempt to give voice to those who push back against mistreatment of others, themselves and planet Earth.

Browne-Marshall is a professor of constitutional law at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, City University of New York.

Bookworks is located at 4022 Rio Grande Blvd. NW.
