tons and tons of free left-of-center books
A centralized location for your leftist literature is a huge trove of books from Adorno to Zizek; Dabashi on Islamic Liberation Theology, Said's Orientalism, the new Malcolm X biography by Marable, books on the Panthers, post-modernism and post-pocolonial studies, plenty Fanon, Freire and Foucault, seasoned with heaping doses of Nietzsche and many others. Enjoy.

What a great resource. Thanks. I found two books on my to-read list after just a quick once-over.
I'm glad you liked it. Which books?
Imaginary Communities by Anderson & Amusing Ourselves to Death by Postman. Anything else there you recommend?
Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death and Imagined Communities by Benedict Anderson. Anything else you'd recommend?
