A VOICE THAT
WOULDN’T BE
SILENCED.
A life in the struggle.
Told in his own words.
In You Will Hear Me Speak, activist and author Gary Clark tells his story as a Marxist trade unionist with a stammer.
It is a memoir about finding a voice and using it.
WHAT THEY
SAY.
“Gary, you have always been brave, things that would have held other people back, you have pushed aside and kept going, keep going brother”
“For much of the time since 1986, he and I have fought alongside each other - a common bond forged through a common struggle.
I would encourage every active trade unionist and socialist, and indeed anyone concerned with injustice and discrimination, to read You Will Hear Me Speak. The title of the book is itself a declaration of intent.
This is a story that will have a profound impact on all who read it. Hopefully, it will also inspire readers to dedicate themselves to the most important struggle of all: the fight to end the exploitation, brutality and degradation of capitalism.”

ALAN HARDMAN.
