Summary

Supply Lines explores the crucial role of military logistics in shaping the outcomes of wars throughout history. It argues that logistical capabilities, often overlooked in favor of battlefield tactics, are frequently the determining factor in military success. From ancient armies dependent on foraging to modern forces with intricate supply chains, the book reveals how the flow of resources impacts military campaigns. For example, a brilliant tactical plan is useless if an army lacks timely access to food, arms, and supplies.

 
The book begins by establishing the core principles of military logistics, such as procurement, transportation, storage, and distribution. It progresses thematically by analyzing logistical challenges across different historical periods and geographical contexts, and presenting detailed case studies of military campaigns where supply lines played a decisive role. Military logistics are examined through various lenses, revealing how economic resources and political decisions influence military outcomes, providing a comprehensive analysis of warfare's underlying dynamics.

    In this, his premiere work, Cornel West challenges African Americans to consider the incorporation of Marxism into their theological perspectives, thereby adopting the mindset that it is class more so than race that renders one powerless in America. His work reflects political and cultural perspectives borne out of his own formative life experiences. Decades later, his arguments continue to capture the theological imagination of many and influence the critical engagement of generations of scholars. 
 
 
 
In this fortieth anniversary edition, West invites six prominent scholars—whose respective work are grounded in various aspects of black political, cultural, and theological thought—into dialogue with this work, each writing one chapter plus a foreword by Jonathan Lee Walton. Continuing and expanding on the revolutionary discourses that West introduced in the first published work, each new essay provides nuanced lens for thinking about movements of liberation in today's African American communities.

    ""Dispels the myth that people of color are somehow predisposed to poor health, blaming systemic injustice in the health care system."" —New York Times Book Review 
Legendary comedian D.L. Hughley uses his ""hilarious yet soul-shaking"" (Black Enterprise) humor to confront racism's unjust impact on the health and wellbeing of Blacks and minorities  
White people love survival guides. But have you noticed they’re always about ridiculous activities in locations far from home, with chapters like “How to Survive an Avalanche"" or ""How to Live on Bugs in the Jungle.” Huh?! 
You know who really needs a survival guide? Black and brown Americans. For surviving their own damn country! Minority populations wake up every day in a battle for their health and safety. Thankfully, legendary activist-comedian D.L. Hughley offers How to Survive America, a fearless satire that exposes racism’s unjust toll on our bodies and minds. 
Even before COVID-19 disproportionately impacted minority communities, life expectancy for Blacks was a full three years less than for white Americans. The very air we breathe is more polluted, our water is more contaminated, our local food options are toxic, and our jobs are underpaid. Despite the obvious need, the quality of our health care is tragically inadequate. Our communities are statistically less safe than the average, and yet we’re terrorized by the law-enforcement and criminal-justice systems that are supposed to protect us, sending Blacks to prison at five times the rate of whites. Not least, our means of addressing these injustices—voting—is perennially under assault. 
It’s enough to drive you crazy. Well, guess what? According to Cigna, Blacks are 20 percent more likely to report “psychological distress” yet “50 percent less likely to receive counseling or mental health treatment.” It’s almost like the entire country has been structured with no regard for our welfare. Hmmm. 
Whether you’re Black, white, brown, or Asian, don’t leave home without arming yourself with How to Survive America!
