DESCRIPTION:Join us in San Francisco at 7:30 at Booksmith for...\n\nTHIS IS AN 
 UPRISING: How Nonviolent Revolt Is Shaping the Twenty-First 
 Century!\n\nPresentation and discussion with author Paul Engler.\n\nNaomi 
 Klein says of the book: "Absorbing... ambitious... indispensable. A genuine 
 gift to social movements everywhere."\n\nMichelle Alexander says: "For 
 those who dare to dream that truly transformational, even revolutionary 
 change might be possible... in our lifetimes (but who wonder what 
 strategies or tactics could possibly achieve a monumental shift in 
 consciousness), this book is for you."\n\nFrom protests around climate 
 change and immigrant rights, to Occupy, the Arab Spring, and 
 #BlackLivesMatter, a new generation is unleashing strategic nonviolent 
 action to shape public debate and force political change. When mass 
 movements erupt onto our television screens, the media consistently 
 portrays them as being spontaneous and unpredictable. Yet, in this book, 
 Mark and Paul Engler look at the hidden art behind such outbursts of 
 protest, examining core principles that have been used to spark and guide 
 moments of transformative unrest.\n\n"This is a landmark book. [It] puts a 
 name on... a powerful method of making real change fast. And real change 
 fast is in fact what our world requires." -- Bill McKibben, author and 
 co-founder of 350.org\n\n“I love this book. The Englers have written 
 fresh and exciting addition to the literature of social movements... We all 
 need to read this now.” —George Lakey, author, activist, and founder of 
 Training for Change\n\n7:30 PM book talk and discussion with author Paul 
 Engler.\n\nBooks available for sale at the event!\n
