About KEVIN POWELL and SOMEDAY WE'LL ALL BE FREE

Acclaimed writer and political activist KEVIN POWELL publishes his 7th book, a bold and passionate collection of three new essays on freedom, democracy, and justice in America, as inspired by the tragedies of Hurricane Katrina and September 11th, and the 2004 presidential election.


"The enlightening essays in Someday We'll All Be Free are an interpretive collage of tragic events in American life that are redefining our debates about civil liberties and the unspoken expendability of the poor."
—The Washington Post

"As a charismatic speaker, leader, and a very good writer, Kevin Powell has the courage...to be fully human, and this will bring the deepest revolution of all."
—Gloria Steinem

“When you consider the intelligence and breadth of Kevin Powell's writing and activism, you come to the conclusion that there may be no better spokesperson and representative for a generation that has too long been counted out.”
—asha bandele
