Description:

Busboys and Poets Books welcomes author Barbara Rhine to sign and discuss Tell No Lies 

Set in California's San Joaquin Valley during the early 1970's, TELL NO LIES is about a Black Panthers fugitive on the run, a Latino farm worker's union organizer and a Jewish feminist from Berkeley, caught in a love triangle during one of the largest UFW marches in history.

Diving deep into the heart of America's radical culture and ethnic politics to tell a powerful love story, Barbara Rhine evokes experiences at once historically specific and timelessly universal.

About the author:

Barbara Rhine served as staff attorney with the United Farmworkers Union (UFW) from 1973-75 during the largest agricultural strike in California history. She has fought for social change since the sixties with CORE, MLK, the Black Panther Party, Second Wave feminists, anti-Iraq war organizers and climate change activists. 

A former Golden Gate School of Law professor in San Francisco, Barbara Rhine practices law in Oakland, California, with a focus on children's legal issues.
