As an activist in my late twenties, I found this book speaking directly to the challenges, debates, and frustrations of young activists and young activist communities today. Todd Gitlin writes in humble language that shows that he gets it--he respects young activists, he knows us, and he understands our world, our dreams, and our frustrations. So many of us are frustrated, cynical, and burned out and yet feel that to stop our activism would be a betrayal to those with less privilege and a betrayal of our own deepest selves. Todd Gitlin speaks directly to this feeling and helps show a path of balance, joy, and deep possibility. A must read for all younger activists--perhaps even those who once were young activists and got burned up.
