Kartoniert, 322 Seiten, 203mm x 133mm x 19mm, Sprache(n): eng Lee Cotton is a black boy born white-skinned in segre­gated Eureka, Mississippi, in 1950. Over the course of Lee's first twenty years, he will fall in love with the daughter of a local Klansman, get kicked senseless and left for dead on a freight train headed north, end up in St. Louis as a white man, and be drafted into the psych-ops corps in Nevada. There, a drunken accident will separate Lee from another part of his identity and change his fate yet again. Before he returns to Mississippi, he will experience up close and personal the women's liberation movement and the dawn of the Lesbian Nation. Lee Cotton's voice?equal parts Delta Blues and Motown?takes us on an exhilarating freedom ride through America's preoccupation with identity politics. His funny, forgiving charm ultimately embodies a serious message: The freaks and oddities of this world may well be divine.Christopher Wilson is a Senior Research Fellow at the Centre on Governance and a retired faculty member at the Telfer School of Management at the University of Ottawa where he taught courses on collaboration, partnership and e-governance. Mr. Wilson is also the principal consultant of Christopher Wilson & Associates, which specializes in issues of organizational development, governance, stewardship, and multi-stakeholder collaboration, where he has worked with a variety of public, private and civic partnerships.
