Out this week: The Black Schooner: Rebellion on the Amistad (Beacon Press, $18.95):
Marcus Rediker, David Lester and Paul Buhle tell the story of the 1839 Amistad rebellion, where 53 enslaved Africans slipped their restraints, overpowered their captors and forced the ship toward home, centering the story on the Africans themselves rather than the famous trial that followed.
See what else is arriving in comic shops this week!
“Given the infinitely limited tools that Canuck duo Mecca Normal work with (Jean Smith’s voice and David Lester’s electric guitar) it’s a testament to their faculty to keep Mecca Normal invigorating after numerous releases.”
MECCA NORMAL review by TOM SCHARPLING, Editor
EIGHTEEN WEELER #4 (page 35) 1991
REBECCA ODES reviewed the same MECCA NORMAL record on page 95 of FORCED EXPOSURE #17 in 1991 and wrote, “Remember - Jean Smith doesn’t want to come to your house and cut off your dick, she just wants to let you know what life can be like without one.”
Jean + David = MECCA NORMAL: "Arguably the greatest rock band without a rhythm section ever, the duo of acid-voiced singer Jean Smith and guitar hero David Lester must be seen to be believed.” - Douglas Wolk
