Description: We the Resistance by Chris Hedges, Dolores Huerta, Michael G. Long Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A first-person history of nonviolent resistance in the U.S., from pre-Revolutionary America to the Trump years. Publisher Description While historical accounts of the United States typically focus on the nations military past, a rich and vibrant counterpoint remains basically unknown to most Americans. This alternate story of the formation of our nation-and its character-is one in which courageous individuals and movements have wielded the weapons of nonviolence to resist policies and practices they considered to be unjust, unfair, and immoral. We the Resistance gives curious citizens and current resistors unfiltered access to the hearts and minds-the rational and passionate voices-of their activist predecessors. Beginning with the pre-Revolutionary era and continuing through the present day, readers will directly encounter the voices of protesters sharing instructive stories about their methods (from sit-ins to tree-sitting) and opponents (from Puritans to Wall Street bankers), as well as inspirational stories about their failures (from slave petitions to the fight for the ERA) and successes (from enfranchisement for women to todays reform of police practices). Instruction and inspiration run throughout this captivating reader, generously illustrated with historic graphics and photographs of nonviolent protests throughout U.S. history.
