Walter Mosley
Workin` on the Chain Gang: Shaking Off the Dead Hand of History (Library of Contemporary Thought)

Slavery was outlawed in this country more than a century ago, but Americans still wear chains. Each one of us, black and white alike, is shackled by a system that values money over humanity, power over truth, conformity over creativity. Race has undeniably made the problem worse, but race is not the root of the problem. Indeed, as black novelist and activist Walter Mosley brilliantly argues in this impassioned call to arms, though the chains might be more recognizable in the lives of blacks, the same chains restrain us all. Only when we understand this truth can we begin—black and white together—to cast off the shackles.

Far from being a cause for celebration, the millennium, Mosley argues fiercely, should be the occasion for a frank reckoning with the real state of our society. We have the power to end starvation, but one-third of our children live in poverty. Our politics have degenerated into a multimillion-dollar game show ruled by two indistinguishable monopolies. We drug ourselves with television, sports, sex, apathy, and obsession with celebrity, while our cities rot and violence erupts in our schools.

Why is this happening? Because we have allowed ourselves to be made into property, owned and controlled by an economic system in which `value` means only profit. `Some of us are cogs in the economic machine,` writes Mosley, `others are ghosts, but it is the machine, not race or gender or even nationality, that drives us.`

But each one of us can work toward breaking off these chains. First by recognizing the truth of our history—a history that is crucially informed by the black experience. Second by beginning to free ourselves from the noise, the often shallow, diverting entertainments, and an all-consuming economic system. The nation and its potentials are ours to command, but only if we work, individually and collectively, to cast off the chains of yesterday`s politics and seize the freedoms that the future holds.

Angry, original, and fearlessly honest, Workin` on the Chain Gang is a powerful examination of the American economic and political machine. No matter what your race, gender, politics, or beliefs, this is a book that will profoundly alter the way you think—and the way you act.

Ako nije stavljena opcija da je moguće slanje i nekom drugom kurirskom službom pored postexpressa, slobodno kupite knjigu pa nam u poruci napišite koja kurirska služba vam odgovara.

Ukoliko još uvek nemate bar 10 pozitivnih ocena, zbog nekoliko neprijatnih iskustava, molili bi vas da nam uplatite cenu kupljenog predmeta unapred.

Novi Sad lično preuzimanje ili svaki dan ili jednom nedeljno zavisno od lokacije prodatog predmeta.

Našu kompletnu ponudu možete videti preko linka
https://www.kupindo.com/Clan/H.C.E/SpisakPredmeta
Ukoliko tražite još neki naslov koji ne možete da nađete pošaljite nam poruku možda ga imamo u magacinu.
Pogledajte i našu ponudu na limundu https://www.limundo.com/Clan/H.C.E/SpisakAukcija
Slobodno pitajte šta vas zanima preko poruka. Preuzimanje moguce u Novom Sadu i Sremskoj Mitrovici uz prethodni dogovor. (Većina knjiga je u Sremskoj Mitrovici, manji broj u Novom Sadu, tako da se najavite nekoliko dana ranije u slucaju ličnog preuzimanja, da bi knjige bile donete, a ako Vam hitno treba neka knjiga za danas ili sutra, obavezno proverite prvo preko poruke da li je u magacinu da ne bi doslo do neprijatnosti). U krajnjem slučaju mogu biti poslate i poštom u Novi Sad i stižu za jedan dan.

U Novom Sadu lično preuzimanje na Grbavici na našoj adresi ili u okolini po dogovoru. Dostava na kućnu adresu u Novom Sadu putem kurira 350 dinara.
Slanje nakon uplate na račun u Erste banci (ukoliko ne želite da plaćate po preuzimanju). Poštarina za jednu knjigu, zavisno od njene težine (do 2 kg), može biti od 170-264 din. Slanje vise knjiga u paketu težem od 2 kg 340-450 din. Za cene postexpressa ili drugih službi se možete informisati na njihovim sajtovima.

INOSTRANSTVO: Šaljem po dogovoru, ili po vašim prijateljima/rodbini ili poštom. U Beč idem jednom godišnje pa ako se podudare termini knjige mogu doneti lično. Skuplje pakete mogu poslati i po nekom autobusu, molim vas ne tražite mi da šaljem autobusima knjige manje vrednosti jer mi odlazak na autobusku stanicu i čekanje prevoza pravi veći problem nego što bi koštala poštarina za slanje kao mali paket preko pošte.

Ukoliko kupujete više od jedne knjige javite se porukom možda Vam mogu dati određeni popust na neke naslove.

Sve knjige su detaljno uslikane, ako Vas još nešto interesuje slobodno pitajte porukom. Reklamacije primamo samo ukoliko nam prvo pošaljete knjigu nazad da vidim u čemu je problem pa nakon toga vraćamo novac. Jednom smo prevareni od strane člana koji nam je vratio potpuno drugu knjigu od one koju smo mu mi poslali, tako da više ne vraćamo novac pre nego što vidimo da li se radi o našoj knjizi.
Ukoliko Vam neka pošiljka ne stigne za dva ili tri dana, odmah nas kontaktirajte za broj pošiljke kako bi videli u čemu je problem. Ne čekajte da prođe više vremena, pogotovo ako ste iz inostranstva, jer nakon određenog vremena pošiljke se vraćaju pošiljaocu, tako da bi morali da platimo troškove povratka i ponovnog slanja. Potvrde o slanju čuvamo do 10 dana. U 99% slučajeva sve prolazi glatko, ali nikad se ne zna.

Ukoliko uvažimo vašu reklamaciju ne snosimo troškove poštarine, osim kada je očigledno naša greška u pitanju.
