How Nonviolence Protects the State

In an age of growing police states, literal violence from governments and corporations, some people are questioning nonviolence as the old stand by form of protest. All forms of "violence" are frowned upon as macho and undermining the cause but is this so? How is pacifism and patriarchy connected? What about white privilege? Does nonviolence even work? This book delves into these hard questions and also questions our presumed ideas about famous activists and their strategies. If you're looking to broaden your ideas of how to reclaim this planet you need to add this book to your reading list! New edition is complete with a Defiance, OH quote!
