Compare The Revolt Of The Cockroach People by Oscar Zeta Acosta, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

In this exhilarating sequel to The Autobiography of a Brown Buffalo, Acosta takes behind the front lines of the militant Chicano movement of the late sixties and early seventies, a movement he served both in the courtroom and on the barricades. Here are the brazen games of 'chicken' Acosta played against the Anglo legal establishment; battles fought with bombs as well as writs; and a reluctant hero who faces danger not only from the police but from the vatos locos he champions. What emerges is at once an important political document of a genuine popular uprising and a revealing, hilarious, and moving personal saga. | The Revolt Of The Cockroach People by Oscar Zeta Acosta, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
