Burnley Rocky Jones

“The life, work and activism of Rocky Jones are central to African-Canadian history and the civil rights movement in Canada. Canadians lost a great soul, with the recent death of Rocky Jones, but his autobiography – co-written by James Walker, a close friend of Rocky Jones and one of our foremost writers about Black history in Canada – is a wonderful gift to the entire country. Revolutionary will soon be required reading for any person who seeks to understand the civil rights movement in Canada.” – Lawrence Hill “A must read, a manual for all freedom fighters, and a testament to Rocky Jones' and Black power and resilience.” ? Afua Cooper “Any telling of human rights and social equity in Canada would be incomplete without reference to ?revolutionary? Rocky Jones' truth-telling about his life captured in this compelling exemplary autobiography. This insightful account is not only about life as an African Nova Scotian, but also about the community, law, politics.” ?
