Reviews

'Rigorous, impassioned and urgent, this book punctures the puffed-up nationalist swagger of our government with an incisive critique of post-imperial decline' -- Ash Sarkar, journalist, activist and Senior Editor at Novara Media 'A metaphorical molotov from beyond the barricades' -- Lowkey, rapper and activist 'Challenges us to step outside of the tempo of the hot-take and the electoral cycle to look beyond party-political rows. As training, allyship and inclusion increasingly become the favoured response to Black Lives Matter, the book invites us to build the relationships and structures of care so necessary for a collective freedom' -- Gracie Bradley, Interim Director at Liberty
