Filed under book | Tags: · activism, democracy, education, internet, politics, protest, resistance, social movements, united kingdom
The first book to be produced by an ‘editorial kettle’ – all seven of its editors are under 30 and have been kettled by the police during 2010 winter protests in United Kingdom. Fight Back! features 350 pages of reports, analysis, images, reflections and overviews on the UK’s winter of protests by 43 authors. It asks: Is this the start of a successful movement against fees and cuts? From a 15-year-old UK Uncut flash-mob activist to a rebel Lib Dem peer – Fight Back! captures both the spirit and arguments of Britain’s winter revolt, bringing together the best reportage and analysis of an extraordinary political moment.
Editorial Kettle: Guy Aitchison, Siraj Datoo, Cailean Gallagher, Laurie Penny, Aaron Peters and Paul Sagar
