520    As people consider how to respond to a resurgence of 
       racist, xenophobic populism, A Mouth Is Always Muzzled 
       tells an extraordinary story of the ways art brings hope 
       in perilous times. Weaving disparate topics from sugar and
       British colonialism to attacks on free speech and Facebook
       activism and traveling a jagged path across the Americas, 
       Africa, India, and Europe, Natalie Hopkinson, former 
       culture writer for the Washington Post and The Root, 
       argues that art is where the future is negotiated. Part 
       post-colonial manifesto, part history of British Caribbean,
       part exploration of art in the modern world, A Mouth Is 
       Always Muzzled is a dazzling analysis of the insistent 
       role of art in contemporary politics and life. In crafted,
       well-honed prose, Hopkinson knits narratives of culture 
       warriors: painter Bernadette Persaud, poet Ruel Johnson, 
       historian Walter Rodney, novelist John Berger, and 
       provocative African American artist Kara Walker, whose 
       homage to the sugar trade Sugar Sphinx electrified 
       American audiences. A Mouth Is Always Muzzled is a moving 
       meditation documenting the artistic legacy generated in 
       response to white supremacy, brutality, domination, and 
       oppression. In the tradition of Paul Gilroy, it is a cri 
       de coeur for the significance of politically bold--even 
       dangerous--art to all people and nations.
