A searingly honest and provocative memoir, Mother American Night chronicles the author’s journey through the turbulent times of the 1960s and 1970s, from her childhood in the Jim Crow South to her time as a radical activist and journalist.

Patricia Sullivan's life has been an epic journey. She was born in the segregated South in 1949, and by the age of 19 she was a member of the Black Panther Party. She went on to become a leading figure in the feminist movement, and in the 1970s she co-founded Ms. magazine.

In Mother American Night, Sullivan tells her story with candor and courage. She writes about her experiences with racism, sexism, and poverty, and she does not shy away from the difficult decisions she had to make along the way.

Sullivan's memoir is a powerful indictment of the injustices that have plagued American society for centuries. But it is also a story of hope and resilience. Sullivan's journey is a reminder that even in the darkest of times, it is possible to fight for a better world.
