by William M. Kunstler
Includes transcripts of secretly recorded speeches from Kunstler’s
FBI file.
The defiance, anger, passion and optimism of “America’s most
celebrated and most detested” radical lawyer William Kunstler ring
throughout this selection of his unpublished speeches.
Kunstler’s outspoken opposition to war, racism and political
repression resulted in an extensive FBI file, which included secretly recorded
transcripts of many of his public speeches.
The introduction by Michael Ratner, President of the Center for
Constitutional Rights, New York, highlights the fact that Kunstler’s
warning about the encroaching police state is even more prescient today.
