O knihe
When Harvey Davenport is elected to City Council, he intends to make changes for good. Instead, he discovers that the council has approved plans to construct a waste disposal facility in a minority community already suffering from toxic waste produced by two nearby industrial parks.
Incensed by this careless example of institutional racism, Harvey struggles to have the project moved to a less harmful location. However, threats, gunshots and a beating soon confirm that the establishment's determination to have its way is stronger than he anticipated.
Inspired by the author's own experiences in 1965 Alabama, Cult of Sacrifice is an example of how racism permeates our business, political, and cultural institutions as it poisons and destroys Black lives both young and old. The barbarous treatment of Blacks occurs everywhere, but by shining a light on this injustice, perhaps we can reach equality.
