Join The Print Factory in Bellefonte for a talk by David Roediger on his book, "An Ordinary White: My Anti-racist Education"

Books will be available at the event. You can also get copies via bookshop.org.

Written by the author of the landmark book The Wages of Whiteness and one of the key figures in the critical study of race and racism in America, An Ordinary White is the life story of the historian and radical American writer, David Roediger.

With wry wit and keen observation, Roediger chronicales his intellectual and political evolution from growing up in his southern Midwest sundown town to becoming a leading figure in working-class history and Whiteness studies. A latecomer to the New Left, a longtime figure in the Chicago Surrealist Gropu, and part of the collective reviving the Charles Kerr Company - the world’s oldest social publisher - Roediger capture events and characters absent from standard histories of the left as well as such icons of resistance as Studs Terkel, Noel Ignatiev, Angela Davis, Toni Morrison, and C.L.R. James.
