A groundbreaking, personal exploration of Americas obsession with continuing human bondage from the editor of the New York Timesbestselling Barracoon.Freedom and equality are the watchwords of American democracy. But like justice, freedom and equality are meaningless when there is no corresponding practical application of the ideals they represent. Physical, bodily liberty is fundamental to every Americans personal sovereignty. And yet, millions of Americansincluding author Deborah Plants brother, whose life sentence at Angola Prison reveals a shocking current parallel to her academic work on the history of slavery in Americaare deprived of these basic freedoms every day.In her studies of Zora Neale Hurston, Deborah Plant became fascinated by Hurstons explanation for the atrocities of the international slave trade. In her memoir, Dust Tracks on a Road, Hurston wrote: But the inescapable fact that stuck in my craw, was: my people had sold me and the white people had bought me. . . . It impressed upon me the universal nature of greed and glory. We look the other way when the basic human rights of marginalized and stigmatized groups are violated and desecrated, not realizing that only the practice of justice everywhere secures justice, for any of us, anywhere.An active vigilance is required of those who would be and remain free; with Of Greed and Glory, Deborah Plant reveals the many ways in which slavery continues in America today and charts our collective course toward personal sovereignty for all.
