Whenever stripper Gypsy Rose Lee encountered public criticism, she spoke frankly in her own defense.

On March 21st, 1960, police opened fire on members of the Pan Africanist Congress (PAC) protesting peacefully in the Vaal Triangle township of Sharpeville against apartheid’s iniquitous "pass laws".

Eight essays examine such issues as the
