Book Synopsis Avanti Popolo by : Italian-American Political Solidarity Club
Book excerpt: "For many years, the Italian-American Political Solidarity Club has held an annual poetry reading on the holiday known as Columbus Day. Our purpose? To encourage our paesans to break with the legacy of Christopher Columbus and embrace a future based in human solidarity, not conquest, domination and war. Instead of conquest, we celebrate those who have stood up for justice. As Italian Americans, we honor our immigrant experiences as teachers, laborers, union organizers, and free speech advocates. By sailing away from Columbus, we start to break down the logic of conquest, which invariably leads to wars abroad and repression at home"--Page 4 of cover.
