Acclaimed novelist Walter Mosley spins a different yarn in Workin' on the Chain Gang, imploring citizens to solve the social, economic, racial, and political crimes of late-20th-century civilization. Mosley takes aim at the average American's feelings of disempowerment and--while he is quick to point out the role race plays--he also states: "The problem facing Americans today does not originate from racial conflict. The problem is the enslavement of a whole nation to the rather small and insignificant goals of the few who own (or control) almost everything." Mosley covers a lot of ground--from Plato's Republic to his own bid for the presidency--but through it all, his faith rests in the individual to change the world through changing his or her own world; he cites as an example his creative powers as a writer to turn fiction into reality. Mosley calls for us to "recognize some of the restraints placed on us by the organization of labor and popular culture, then to see, from a calm place, that there might be a world in our hearts that we would like to realize, first by speaking out, then by shouting out, and finally by action." --Eugene Holley Jr.

The chains of capitalism.......2007-08-04

WORKIN' ON THE CHAIN GANG: Shaking off the Dead Hand of History by Walter
Mosley takes a look at the chains that bind citizens of the United States.
Money, and producing more of it, is what is driving the country these days.
Even what we see on television is more about what sells rather than what is
true. The entire nation is pushing against the injustice brought about by
the few who own and control everything. While Blacks have long fought
against this type of injustice, now it is everyone's battle. Making money
has become global and therefore the need to pay attention to the
needs of the workers and unions are long dead. He ends on a note of hope,
using his platform for the presidency to show what must happen for America
to survive these chains.

WORKIN' ON THE CHAIN GANG is a very enlightening book and says what so many
of us are thinking. It certainly takes courage to make this public in
today's age of fear, retribution and loss of Constitutional protections.
Mosley has penned a book that every thinking citizen in the United States,
indeed the world, should read. It explains so much that we wonder about but
can't articulate.

Thought Provoking.......2001-10-15

When Walter Mosley wrote this essay, he intended it to make people think about the way things are, and the way things can change. However this book was not a one-sided rant, nor is just for African-Americans. This issues addressed in this essay, ranging from capitalism in America to voter apathy, reveal some profound insights and proposes soulutions to the problems brought forth. To many people this book will be an eye-opener; it certainly was for me. While I might not agree with the degree of some of Mr. Mosley's assertions, I recommend this book highly for anyone trying to gain a different perspective of the United States than what you see in the news or read in the paper.

Down with Capitalism!.......2001-10-02

ýWe [the working class] are marginalized by the profit of capitalism. We are footnotes to Citibank and the Mobil Oil Corporation and Chiquita Brands International (once know as the United Fruit Company).ý --Walter Mosely

Because I have read and advocated the analysis, ideas, and visions of Jesus, Karl Marx, Fedel Castro, Dorothy Day, Kwame Nkrumah, Rosa Luxanburg, and Mother Jones, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King, and Paulo Friere, and many others, I didnýt find much new in this work by Walter Mosley. However, it was refreshing to see a fiction writer with skill, talent, and insight, attempt to give a piece of his mind in an honest, direct way.

Iým not sure how people who are fans of Mosleyýs best selling fictional works will read this, his first non-fiction book. But I would suggest that despite its brevity and lack of development, this book would make a great book club discussion. Itýs packed with enough insight and ideas for contemporary political thought that it might indeed lead readers to ponder life beyond their American Dream homes, automobiles, household gadgets, and Kodak moments.

Mosely makes sharp criticism of an American capitalist society which essentially puts profits before people and consumption before real needs. Thus, while people starve and receive medical care in this the richest country in the world, 5% of the population holds at least half the wealth in the country. There are people in this country who make say $5000 an hour when they go to work, while the rest of the population gets by on two-family incomes, over-time hours, and two-jobs salaries. And this says nothing about the poorest parts of the world where a bar of soap and toothpaste are luxury items.

As Mosely reminds us, ýWe know how much money every armed bandit has stolen from banks but almost nothing about how much the banks have stolen from us. We are told, during the commercial, how much some piece of clothing costs, but the returning anchor refrains from telling us what economic havoc we have caused in the third world by paying slave wages to local workers to make the price attractive [and profitable].ý

Mosely attempts to give his view of an ideal system that would replace capitalism. But here he falls short. He regrets the doesnýt ýknow the exact steps that need to be taken to free us from our entanglements.ý Heýs not even sure itýs possible. But when tries to say that ýeveryone has a right to a living wage, a right to competent medical care, and a share in the natural resources that the nation either owns or creates,ý he sounds to me, as I understand it, like heýs a calling for a socialist system--though he dismisses early on in his book Marxism and communism as failed ideologies. Thatýs too bad. For I think if he had put more thought into a socialist transformation of society, he could have provided his readers with more to think about.

Instead, he suggest that readers contemplate their visions for a better world. But I bet when people do that, it will simply sound more like individualistic, capitalist visions of society. Itýs not that we shouldnýt contemplate our own visions, but I suggest that itýs not that we, as Mosely suggest, need to make a list of ýwhat it is that you deserve for a lifetime of labor,ý but that we need to involve ourselves in a process of political education. We need political reading groups in our places of worship, our colleges, communities, and places of employment. As we politically educate ourselves, we can begin to ask ourselves what could I do with other in an organized manner to work for what I think is just and right.

This political education process could begin with Mosely work.

putting the chains back on.......2001-08-28

This short, but overlong, book, which (God help us) comes from something called the Library of Contemporary Thought, offers pulp fiction writer Walter Mosley the opportunity to share his opinion on how to reform America culture and politics. Sadly, he proceeds to embarrass himself utterly. The chain gang of the title is his completely inapt metaphor for modern economic life. Imagine the disdain with which folks like Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, W.E.B. DuBois, Paul Robeson, Jackie Robinson, Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcom X, and other genuine heroes of the fight for civil rights for blacks would greet Mosely's bizarre assertion that we are all enslaved in modern America : Everywhere I look I see chains, from the planned obsolescence that binds us to an endless line of ever more useless machines to captivating television shows about nothing to the value of the dollar bills insecurely nestled at the bottom of my pocket. For hundreds of years, Africans (an estimated 10 million) were captured, chained and sold; taken by force to America in the festering bowels of transport ships; sold again and enslaved by white masters; denied all rights and freedoms; forced to work from cradle to grave; beaten; raped; murdered; their families split apart on a whim. This entire system is a stinking blot upon the nation's honor, one which whites had a chance to expunge with the bloodshed and destruction of the Civil War, but which was immediately replenished when frightened and embittered Southerners, with the willing acquiescence of their Northern countrymen, imposed a system of apartheid on the newly freed black population. This time, the outrage of Jim Crow persisted until blacks themselves, in an awe inspiring display of moral and physical courage, used peaceful civil disobedience to shame white America into finally giving them the equal rights they'd long been promised. How can anyone compare this legacy of genuine and horrifying oppression to such trivial matters as overconsumption of appliances and watching too much Seinfeld ? Mosley actually has the temerity at one point to say that : "There is an echo of Jim Crow in the HMO..." One needn't love HMOs to recognize the difference between a mostly successful effort to provide cheap health care, on the one hand, and, on the other, the systematic and official enforcement of political and economic discrimination against an entire segment of the population based solely on the color of their skin. The effort to equate the two is so absurd as not to deserve to be taken seriously. Equally unserious is Mosely's prescription for what should be done to free us from the bondage of capitalism : (1) Take a self-imposed break from electronic media (though for some reason print media is allowed) (2) Tell the truth once a day. (3) Make a list of the things you demand from the system. Please... By the time he gets to his presidential platform you're unsure whether the whole book isn't just an elaborate hoax. Here's what he proposes : educate children; take care of the aged; pay doctors' medical malpractice premiums; educate more doctors and nurses; either legalize drugs or stop their importation into the country; have a conference on capital punishment; create rights to a living wage, health care, and an equal share in the Gross Domestic Product; and enter into international agreements to assure the same to all foreign workers too. As a candidate he would be some kind of weird melding of Bill Clinton, proposing only programs that everyone supports, and Lenin, reintroducing socialism. What's most surprising, or maybe not, about all of this, is that the radical egalitarianism that he envisions would essentially return him, and the rest of us, to the plantation. He calls it utopian, but at every step his politics requires that the freedom of some be curtailed in order to benefit others. In his great autobiography, Up From Slavery, Booker T. Washington talks about the terror with which many newly freed blacks faced the prospect of freedom, after the Civil War. A people who had been completely, though involuntarily, dependent on the largesse of their masters was suddenly thrust out into the world and told to fend for themselves. How could this not have been frightening ? And, indeed, freedom, in the words of the old 60s slogan, isn't free. It requires that each of us take responsibility for ourselves and inevitably some will do better than others. But it is deeply discouraging that, some 150 years later--after a 20th Century in which his ideas were already tested and found to lead not to Utopia but to the Gulag--at least one of their descendants is no more prepared to leave the plantation than they were. There's a scene at the end of the movie version of Devil in a Blue Dress that is one of the most ineffably poignant in all of film. Ezekiel Rawlins (Denzel Washington) is standing in the street in front of his house, just looking around his middle class neighborhood. The viewer is achingly aware that where the scene depicts nuclear families, homeowners, workers, a people whose great achievement is to have survived all that the white man tried doing to them and to have built this community in the face of those odds, in just a few short years that was all destroyed by the presumably well-intentioned replacement of the ideal of self-reliance by a system of Big Government paternalism. You can't help but wonder if that community might have continued to thrive if they'd simply been left to themselves, rather than being submitted to the Great Society. What a high price was paid when freedom, however challenging, was replaced by security. Apparently, Mosley believes it's worth paying again. I beg to differ. GRADE : F

The Issues Remain And That Is Sad.......2001-07-10

What is even worse is that we must be reminded of these social issues that have become ingrained in this Country's psyche. This essay by Mr. Walter Mosley is not a one-dimensional discussion on race; rather it encompasses all of the citizens of our Country and what we accept actively or passively.

He touches on several topics in this brief work ranging from the selective history we continue to believe and teach, to obsessions with the absurd and worthless that consumes billions of dollars. He specifically cited the time and money spent on the coverage of O.J. Simpson, and Monica Lewinsky as examples. He challenges readers to turn off the television for three weeks to live outside of the sitcom, arena sports, and the for profit network news. Why? So that people have the time to think about what is truly important to them, and for many to realize the system that they are a part of has little concern for them, ever.

He also touched on privatized for profit prisons. This should not be a cause for debate for anyone who thinks about the topic for a moment. What decisions have been made when a prison needs to be profitable? What does a prison become when it is a business like any other that must have a positive bottom line from its operations? What incentive is there to minimize incarceration and its causes when those that are imprisoned have become a source of profit?

And then there is the apathy that is the cause of a minority of eligible voters that bother to vote. Less than half of those who can, choose from two candidates from the same parties election after election. These candidates resemble about 5% of the Country they wish to lead. They are wealthy, well educated, white, male, and have the ability to raise tens of millions of dollars in their pursuit of power. As this last Presidential Election showed, neither candidate could have cared less what was required of them to gain the office they sought for themselves. Winning was never about those voters they say they want to represent, just the fulfillment of their own selfish wishes. We heard that every vote should count, and then both candidates wanted to specify which were to be counted. One candidate who wished to be Commander in Chief thought nothing of trying to and successfully eliminating the votes of actively serving members of the armed forces.

None of these issues are new and that is what should concern all of us. This Country continues to be polarized by essentially two groups, possible three with the advent of almost 300 multi billionaires in the United States. There is nothing wrong with the creation of wealth, what matters is how it is made and how it is used when in the control of one individual. The irony of one of the super rich is that while at the same time accumulating wealth by means that allegedly were illegal, the same person has personally funded the largest charitable foundation on the planet.

Nothing new, no easy answers, but they must be addressed.

Almost too hot to handle!.......2007-08-06

Euftis gives notice of intent with the first line of his Introduction: "Freaks have no boundaries", but just in case you skip the Introduction he warns you in his Preface: "You will be offended" if you are a prude or sexually inhibited. My tastes in erotica are varied and slightly on the freaky side, so this book was right up my alley. Men will enjoy these stories more because they are generally more open to freakiness, but ladies if you want the 411 on exactly what your man requires of you in bed you have to read Euftis.

These eighteen stories will tease and please you. Euftis keeps it real, and by putting himself in the frame he gives the stories a nice personal touch. If you want to get to know him a bit more personally click on the link to his website and prepare to be shocked!

Erotic pleasure for your eyes at it's best.......2007-05-09

I'm a busy woman and in my readings of erotic, it takes a lot for me to want to pick a book up a second time.

For this book, I did. I had fun going from story to story on adventures that will leave you breathless and wanting.

Euftis is an erotic tornada and has you sweeping across the pages implanting ideas with no inhibitions to boot.

Not only should you get this book, but you should also get the companion novels by this author as well.

Be on the lookout for more of this author's erotic work because you will no doubt want to cum and get it!

Loved It, Absolutely Broadened My Fantasies.......2006-12-29

Let me just start by saying, it was better than I expected. I think it was the knowledge of these stories being true that made it more erotic for me. With every story I felt myself getting aroused more and more. I do have a favorite of this book though, and that was "The Room." I had a fantasy, but it in no way compared to this added fantasy inspired by this particular story. I was taken a back by his sexual creativity with women, and his ability to make women do what ever he desired no matter how nasty. He also made me chuckle with his experiences and his reactions to certain encounters. I am definitely ready to start reading Off da Chain Part II. I know this will be just as good if not better than the first, because something tells me your sexual peak will NEVER be reached. Keep up the good work Euftis.

"Sex" Capades.......2006-07-14

This book consists of a number of short stories written by author and self-confessed freak, Euftis Emery. The main character in most of the stories is Mr. Emery himself who writes with a sense of humor which for me was a welcome change. Some of the situations he writes about are funny and some were damn right off the chain!!
My favorite was the one about the "Bad D**k Report". Some of the characters are featured in more than one story and Mr. Emery leaves NOTHING to the imagination...straight up front, bold and sexy! How refreshing!

"Off the Chain Volume 2" is already on my "to read shelf" I hope Mr. Emery has done a better job with the editing in volume 2.

I'm looking forward to see what sexy mind titillating plots Mr. Emery has for the lovers of erotica.

Hilarious And Tantalizing.......2006-04-21

As I read the book, I was able to let the scenes and characters sort of exist mentally and physically within me. Only a good author of erotica could have this affect on a reader. They have to be realistically in touch with all aspects of every day communication between partners/lovers. Mr. Emery is definitely "IN TOUCH" I loved the experience! ~Angie

Walter Mosley's Appeal.......2000-03-11

Fiction writer Walter Mosely takes yet another daring turn with Working On The Chain Gang. This slim volume is his excursion into non-fiction and political commentary.

Mosley uses concise, plainly spoken language to urge for the study of Black American History as a map of the coming times for all Americans in the global economy.

Wage Slavery, the villification of the youth, and the commodification of humanity are just some of the issues that were once almost exclusively restricted to Black Americans but are slowly becoming concerns of us all.

Mosley's eye is daring and his words speak from an unflinching, sometimes necessarily abrasive, truth that harkens back to the words of early American printer/abolishionist David Walker's Appeal.

Though there are moments of extreme pessimism and unformed solutions to the problems he illustrates, Mosley's Chain Gang is a more than apt blueprint for the new revolution.

Do you because Euftis is going to do HIM!.......2006-09-25

Euftis Emery, the bad boy of erotica, has returned and brought along a few of his friends. Off the Chain Vol. 2 not only includes Euftis' risqué tales, but he gives an opportunity and forum for two new writers (Gina and Ambrosia) to display their talent. Gina, true to your story my dear, you are fierce! Ambrosia educates readers with her secret lustful yearnings. I really like that Euftis gave these sisters a chance to shine and shine they did. With his own stories, he covers the gamut from his being ticklish in "Grimier By Far" to how every woman was not created equal in "Man-Eater" to how he met the infamous Ms. Cocoa in "When Euftis Met Cocoa." Yes Cocoa is back! Different in Vol. 2 however, are interludes. I can't say that I cared for them. B*tchology and Ghetto Test, I believe we've all been emailed at one time or another. That space could have been better utilized with two more stories.

If you enjoyed Off the Chain Vol. 1, then you'll also enjoy Vol. 2 as Euftis gives his audience more naughty freaky tales. He definitely has a way with words. Unfortunately, like Vol. 1, it is also in need of better editing.

Readers beware: there are pictures. Oh my!

Book Description

This book is a must read for all of those who are looking for a true word in a deceptive society. Finally, read a book that says what you've been thinking, but to afraid to say. Today in the Body of Christ Christian morale and true leadership is at an all time low. Many leaders are committing such wickedness in the church as; spiritual incest (having sexual relations with their own congregational members); feeding themselves and not the flocks (where as the sheep are destitute and living without; while pastors and leaders are making a living on their flocks; living and driving the finest). Many pastors and leaders are molesting children, or allowing them to be molested. They boldly walk in a Laocidean spirit, where money has become their great god; they preach a watered down and powerless gospel, and are afraid to speak or stand for truth. The result is; weak, frail, compromising, powerless, and misguided flocks. Such sheep are in search of a shepherd. Should not the shepherds be searching for the sheep? Jesus foretold us that such apostasy would take place in the church. In spite of this truth; there are still many godly leaders who will not bow their knee to Baal; or worship the false gods of compromise, materialism, idolatry, spiritual bribery, or participate in the secret worship of Satan. Though, their voices seem to be muffled by the outcry of those who desire to fulfill the lusts of their flesh, rather than to fulfill the Will of God in their lives. God is bringing to the forefront a remnant army of prophetic and apostolic leaders that will declare as the Lord has declares! They will not compromise! Pastor Sharon Walker is one of many such people. In this book Holy Ghost Thou art Loosed/ The Chains are Off! You will be challenged to change. Confronted with truth that has been avoided in many sanctuaries around the world, and most of all you will recognize the need of the Holy Ghost to be loosed in every area of our lives! After reading this book, you will shout with those who have been transformed by this book; Holy Ghost Thou art Loosed/ The Chains are Off!
