while also providing incisive analysis of major developments of
world affairs." —Noam Chomsky

and primer about everything that matters and how we can move from
the devastation of capitalism to a living breathing working
socialism. Informative and profoundly inspirational." —V (formerly
Eve Ensler), The Vagina Monologues and The Apology
"Struggle Makes Us Human is an impassioned and studied case for
socialism. In the face of the collapse of the Soviet Union, the
unrealized promise of the New International Economic Order, and the
rupture between intellectual and grounded struggle, socialism
remains as necessary and possible as ever. Vijay Prashad takes
readers on an intimate journey across the world and through history
to introduce us to thinkers, workers, revolutionaries, and martyrs
whose example offers glimpses of a horizon that remains within our
reach.” —Noura Erakat
“Vijay Prashad is our own Frantz Fanon. His writing of protest is
always tinged with the beauty of hope.” —Amitava Kumar
"Vijay Prashad recalls a past without which it is impossible to
understand the present.” —Tariq Ali
"Like his hero Eduardo Galeano, Vijay Prashad makes the telling of
the truth lovable; not an easy trick to pull off, he does it
effortlessly.” —Roger Waters
