Pacifism as Pathology: Reflections on the Role of Armed Struggle in North America - Book
Anarchist activist and author Peter Gelderloos first recommended this book to me years ago, and these days Ward Churchill's Pacifism As Pathology is one of the first books I would grab to explain my politics to just about anyone. Actually, it's a really good prequel to Gelderloos's book... Issuing a counterargument to a particular "liberal" brand of secular worship of pacifism, Churchill criticizes Gandhi, 1960s anti-war activists, and Martin Luther King, Jr's Civil Rights struggle as victories DESPITE rather than BECAUSE of their non-violent practices. Ultimately, this book is hella inspiring for its very real criticism of the candy-ass, apologetic, guilt-ridden liberal movement that tells us that non-violence (like voting, paying taxes, buying local, and just saying no to Starbux) is the key to social change. Churchill's idea of revolution is a little more... direct.
