Typical Communist propaganda....
, 2008-01-15
With a foreward by Martin Luther King himself, this book about 'civil rights' is really encouraging african americans to commit violence against whites. Mr. Williams was a staunch communist who was trained in Moscow, then later broadcasted hate speech from Cuba on a weekly basis. This is the leftist version of the infamous 'Turner Diaries.'

To Be A Man!
, 2006-12-02
Mr. William's account of what he and BLACK folk in and around Monroe, NC were faced with is very instructional. Mr. Williams, a marine veteran of the Korean police action and a very religious man, was clear as to exerting his and other BLACK people's human rights; to live unincumbered from the racist and murderous white people's crazy rule. Mr. William's tried many times to work within the white people's version of democracy and law enforcement, and each time was lied to. It is interesting to note that the white people always wanted Mr. William's and the other BLACK men of Monroe to disarm, but the white people would not. And the NAACP's caving under pressure and suspending Mr. Williams is further instructional as to how the "willie lynch syndrome" can infect a people's movement to realizing their human rights. For those who are looking for strategies in what it takes to stand-up for your human rights, this book is another map that can be relied upon for BLACK people's freedom, justice and equality.

Why the individual right to gun ownership is important.
, 2006-11-28
There is much being said about gun ownership and the Second Amendment. Robert Williams book clearly illustrates why even in out "civilized" age that the protection of you and your family depends upon you.
Williams found out about this the hard way when the police refused to assist him against a racist onslaught, but also when the NAACP turned on him too and revoked his NAACP charter for using a gun to save himself from being lynched!
Who would have thought that it would be the the NRA that would come to the aid of Williams and his beleaguered people?
Not exactly the image that the media would like us to have of the NRA, or the NAACP for that matter.
Please do not let the injustice that this man and his family suffered or the painful lessons learned here go to waste!
Read this book and take it's lessons to heart.

Read the book and I met the Man
, 2002-03-27
Robert F. Williams is a man who is forgotten in most histories of The Civil Rights Movement. He talked and practiced self-defense before Malcolm X became a household name. He represented the militant leadership that was to follow him in the form of SNCC and The Black Panther Party. He correctly showed the limits of integration and why everyone could not turn the other cheek.A must buy book.
