An Ordinary Man — Mel Arrighi

Written with elegance and brutality, An Ordinary Man is a frightening and moving tale of revolution; one that might possibly come true. An explosion of Black Power in New York spreads around the country and to a reign of terror, followed by a backlash "Reconstruction". America becomes a police state with secret dossiers, FBI investigations, tapped telephones, and complete segregation, wreaking a terrible and profound effect on the ordinary man.
