Overview
"This is a book about counterculture, and that's a problem . . . " So begins Curtis White's thrilling call for the revitalization of counterculture today.
The problem, White argues, is twofold: most people think of counterculture as a phenomenon stuck in the 1960s, and what passes as counterculture today . . . simply isn't. But in reality, counterculture is our only hope to save the planet, bypass partisan gridlock, and create the world we actually want to live in.
White--"the most inspiringly wicked social critic of the moment" (Elle)--shows how the products of our so-called resistance, from Ken Burns to Black Panther, rarely offer a meaningful challenge to power, and how our own patterns of consumption keep us from making any real social change. The result is an inspiring case for practicing civil disobedience as a way of life, and a vision for a better world--full of play, caring, and human connection.
