Sommario/riassunto |

"Risking Everything : A Freedom Summer Reader documents the 1964 Mississippi Freedom Summer Project, when SNCC and CORE workers and volunteers arrived in the Deep South to register voters and teach non-violence, and more than 60,000 Black Mississippians risked everything to overturn a system that had brutally exploited them. In the 44 original documents in this anthology, you'll read their letters, eavesdrop on their meetings, shudder at their suffering, and admire their courage. You'll witness the final hours of three workers murdered on the project's first day, hear testimony by Black residents who bravely stood up to police torture and Klan firebombs, and watch the liberal establishment betray them. These vivid primary sources, collected by the Wisconsin Historical Society, provide both first-hand accounts of this astounding grassroots struggle as well as a broader understanding of the Civil Rights movement. The selected documents are among the 25,000 pages about the Mississippi Freedom Summer Project in the archives of the Wisconsin Historical Society. The manuscripts were collected in the mid-1960s, at a time when few other institutions were interested in saving the stories of common people in McComb or Ruleville, Mississippi. Most have never been published before"-- |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Dass das Teilen in der Gesellschaft der Gegenwart einmal eine so große Rolle spielen würde, hätte bis vor kurzem wohl kaum jemand vorausgesagt. Eine globale Protestbewegung brachte ein tiefes Bedürfnis zum Ausdruck, alternative Wege einzuschlagen, die auf anderen Werten beruhten als jene, die allem Anschein nach zur Finanzkrise geführt hatten. Gleichzeitig sind hoch entwickelte Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien, die das Teilen erleichtern, nicht nur beinahe überall verfügbar; sie stehen auch im Zentrum des Interesses zahlreicher Menschen, die viel Zeit und Einsatz aufbringen, um mit diesen Technologien zu experimentieren und sie in die Abläufe ihres Alltagslebens eingliedern. Eine ganze Generation von medienkompetenten, radikal globalisierten Menschen wächst mit der täglichen und persönlichen Erfahrung auf, dass das Teilen von (digitalen) Gütern ein unverzichtbares Element im Aufbau gemeinschaftlicher Beziehungen verschiedenster Art ist. Heute stehen |

diese Erfahrungen im krassen Widerspruch zu anderen gesellschaftlichen Erfahrungen, bei denen Wettbewerb und individuelles Besitzstreben vorherrschen. Dieser Band will einen Beitrag zur kollektiven Arbeit leisten, das Teilen in der Gesellschaft neu zu denken. |
