<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Includes new afterward (pages 331-343)."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The "fierce" and "remarkable" memoir from one of the nation's most influential and celebrated civil rights attorneys--second cousin of former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice--is "a rallying cry for social justice" (<i>More</i> magazine).</b> <p/><b>Connie Rice has taken on the bus system, the school system, the death penalty, gangs, and the LAPD--and won.</b> Now, with an electrifying, inimitable voice, Rice illuminates the origins and inspiration for her life's work in this "genuinely compelling" (<i>Kirkus Reviews</i>) account. Part memoir, part call to action, <i>Power Concedes Nothing</i> is pas-sionate, provocative, and studded with dramatic stories of a life in the trenches of civil rights. Inspired by the words of Martin Luther King, Jr., Connie Rice has written a "remarkable" (<i>Publishers Weekly</i>) blueprint for a new generation of justice seekers.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Connie Rice is one of the few great progressive figures and voices whose love of poor people is visceral and whose commitment to justice is unstoppable. Don't miss this powerful story of a grand prophetic witness!"<b>--Cornel West, Princeton University</b><br><br>[A] remarkable journey.... Open and insightful.... Readers will be appalled by the evils Rice fights, but astounded by the energy and intelligence she brings to the battle.--<b><i>Publishers Weekly</i> (starred review)</b><br><br>A compelling story of a life dedicated to creating positive and lasting change in two of the most significant issues facing our society, civil rights and gang violence. There is nobody in America today who has brought so much positive change to these two issues than Connie.... Anyone who cares about democracy and its true potential needs to read this book. <b>--William J. Bratton, Former Chief-LAPD, Former Commissioner-NYPD</b><br><br>[Connie Rice] has a big, important story to tell: of her passion, her history, her legal record and her connection to both the powerful and the underprivileged in Los Angeles.-- "Los Angeles Times"<br>
