Authors

Judith-butler-f_medium
Judith Butler

“As a strategy of resistance and protest, nonviolence is often seen as passive and resolutely individual. Butler’s philosophical inquiry argues that it is in fact a shrewd and even aggressive collective political tactic.” – The New York Times

Ad_1000-f_medium
Angela Y. Davis
“For, if they take you in the morning, they will be coming for us that night.” – James Baldwin
Tariq-ali-f_medium
Tariq Ali

“Ali remains an outlier and intellectual bomb-thrower; an urbane, Oxford-educated polemicist.” — Observer

Vivian Gornick

“Gornick’s language is so fresh and so blunt; it’s a quintessentially American voice, and a beautiful one.” – Dwight Garner, New York Times

Granados-f_medium
Marlowe Granados

“Marlowe Granados writes with a delicious joy and confidence.... a pleasure to read.” – Sheila Heti

Untitled_design_%2868%29_copy_4-f_medium
Walter Rodney

“If Walter Rodney’s assassins were under the impression that they could arrest the flow of his ideas by destroying his body, they could have not been more wrong.” – Angela Davis
