"I’ve often said that actions that grow out of love have the most power.. .
. This powerful book brings together both classic and new works which will
help empower future generations in building for peace and decolonization."
—*Oscar Lopez Rivera*, Puerto Rican former political prisoner, named "the
Mandela of the Americas"

"This book should awaken everyone to the call for action in the struggle to
birth a just new world. We either we act now in solidarity or we descend
deeper into the pit of barbarism.. . . . It is a great feat, an outstanding
gift of a library of living texts!"
—*Nnimmo Bassey*, Health of Mother Earth Foundation, Right Livelihood Award
Laureate.

*Insurrectionary Uprisings* is a compendium of essays that explore what it
will take to win a world based on love and justice. From historical
writing, including Thoreau, Gandhi and Arendt to essays that address the
multiple crises we face in the 21st century, the volume brings together
authors and thinkers from around the globe. With an emphasis on the
quotidian violence of racial monopoly capitalism and Western
imperialism, *Insurrectionary
Uprisings *insists that the possibility of revolutionary nonviolence rests,
in part, on decolonization and decoloniality and a thorough analysis of the
deep and violent roots of racial capitalism, settler colonialism and
heteropatriarchy.
