These reflections on the Red and the Green--out of which arguably the only hope for the future lies--are populated by the likes of Native American anarcho-communist Lucy Parsons, the Dodge Revolutionary Union Movement, Karl Marx, José Martí, W.E.B. Du Bois, Rosa Luxemburg, SNCC, and countless others, both sentient and verdant. The book is a forceful reminder of the potentialities of the future, for the coming of a time when the powerful will fall, the commons restored, and a better world born anew.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Linebaugh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1629631078\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781629631073\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e PM Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 4.90w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/07\/2016","brand":"Peter Linebaugh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984733864191,"sku":"9781629631073","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e147b346-77f5-44cb-8f28-e1f9dcb08a8e.jpg?v=1683273924","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/incomplete-true-authentic-and-wonderful-peter-linebaugh-9781629631073","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
