Description
In the tradition of sophisticated primers like Shel Silverstein’sABZ Book or Oliver Jeers’s Once Upon an Alphabet and afresh twist on the classic ABC book tailor-made for thetwenty-rst century, A Is For Anarchist has a provocativeDIY/street-culture ethos in the tradition of old-school punkand the golden age of hip-hop cultures. This progressive and inspirational work takes simple terms,such as E is for Energy, and twists it to show the subversivemeanings in the context of the current state of the world. Withcaptions written by billy woods, who NPR’s RodneyCarmichael coined as the best rapper of 2019, the words havea certain rhythm on the page that is hard to get out of one’shead. The original art by Myra Musgrave amplies the power behindthe alternative denitions. In a time where people arebeginning to see that the systems in place are not doingenough to help those in need, this is the perfect gift for readerswho want to rock the foundations that organizations are basedon. No one is too young or too old to be an anarchist!
