Beschreibung:
"In this sweeping, erudite, and much-needed book, Nikhil Pal Singh obliterates any myth of American peace, revealing instead that the thread tying America's past and present is long and continuous war--hot, vicious, global, and racial. Linking domestic and foreign terrains of combat, he reveals the various ways in which war and race are inextricably intertwined, whether packaged as wars on communism, terrorism, or crime."--Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Africa Speaks, America Answers: Modern Jazz in Revolutionary Times
