Standing Up To The Madness

Amy Goodman & David Goodman. Standing Up To The Madness: Ordinary Heroes in Extraordinary Times
Hardcover with dust jacket: 228pp. Hyperion 2008.

Stories of everyday citizens who have challenged the government and prevailed. As the Bush administration has waged war abroad and at home, it has catalyzed a vast groundswell of political action. The award-winning sister-brother team traveled the country to detail the ways in which grassroots activists have taken politics out of the hands of politicians in order to inspire the rest of us. What begins as one, eventually becomes many. -- from the book cover.
