A People's Art History of the United States starts at the bottom and places art and the history thereof squarely in the rough-and-tumble of politics, social struggles and the fight for justice from the colonial era through the present day. In this politically-charged narrative, author and radical artist Nicolas Lampert combines historical commentary with detailed examinations of individual artists and their works. The book spans the conquest of the Americas, the American Revolution, slavery and abolition, women's suffrage and feminism, civil rights and much more.
