James W. Douglass is a longtime peace activist and writer. He and his wife Shelley are co-founders of the Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action in Poulsbo, Washington, and Marys House, a Catholic Worker house of hospitality in Birmingham, Alabama. His books include The Nonviolent Cross, The Nonviolent Coming of God, Resistance and Contemplation, Gandhi and the Unspeakable, and most recently, Martyrs to the Unspeakable: The Assassinations of JFK, Malcolm, Martin, and RFK

“A staggering achievement. In this incredible saga of mid-twentieth-century America, Jim Douglass links the deaths of four of our greatest disrupters to a government mindset that set out to destroy them before they could change the world we knew. Douglass makes history truly alive in a way that helps us really remember what these stories mean for our country.”—Oliver Stone
