prisons

[Michael Yates]

Next month I will begin teaching a class at a maximum security state
prison in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  The course will be an intro to
political economy.  The students will number about 15, and all of them
will probably be African Americans. We will meet once a week for a
couple of hours.  There is no textbook, so I will be copying articles
for discussion.  If persons on the list know of articles they think
would be appropriate to use in this class, please let me know.  Short,
clearly writtten articles that illustrate features of the political
econmy might be especially useful.  Thanks.
