Letters from Young Activists book 256 pages, 1/2 size, paperback (9 oz) * OUT OF STOCK *

Who will lead activism in America in the years to come? Here are America's energized, exciting new generation of activists. In letters addressed to their parents, to past generations, to each other, to punk rock, to the youth of tomorrow and to their future selves, the authors here articulate their vision for the world. As the editors write in their introduction: "From globalization to the war on terrorism and beyond, our generation is compelled to action in the midst of a rapidly changing and unique political moment. Our challenge, and yours, is to live our lives in a way that does not make a mockery of our values." A preface by Bernardine Dohrn, a member of the Weather Underground.

 
If anyone wonders abut what that nebulous thing called 'the Movement' is, here are their many and varied voices. In letters of love and hope, of anger and depression, of wonder and rebellion, young people, from preteens to twenty-somethings, grapple with what it means to be part of 'the Movement' in these dim days of empire. Mumia Abu-Jamal
