Description:

Politics & Prose at Busboys and Poets 14th & V welcomes Walter Mosley to present his new book "Folding the Red into Black: Developing a Viable Untopia for Human Survival in the 21st Century."

Mosley’s Easy Rawlins, Fearless Jones, and Leonid McGill mysteries represent only one side of this accomplished writer’s achievements. Best known as a novelist, Mosley, winner of PEN America’s Lifetime Achievement Award, has also published nonfiction works on politics, economics, and race, including Workin’ on the Chain Gang and Twelve Steps toward Political Revelation. A compelling social visionary, Mosley here draws on his experiences as a Jewish African American to urge readers to reject the demands of both capitalism and socialism and instead find creative alternatives to fulfill their own and humanity’s deepest potential.
