From the Abolitionist movement, to strikes and other efforts to resist unjust labor practices, to the struggle for women's rights, LGBT rights, the anti-globalization movement, and more, these writings detail America's rich history of protest and fighting without weapons to make the nation a better place. Erudite and inspirational, We the Resistance is highly recommended, especially for personal, public, and college library American History collections."
