Please Don't Bomb the Suburbs is a book for middle-aging youth
activists who are still passionate about fighting for a
revolutionary new society, but recognize the importance of a
visionary long-term, sustained movement in achieving change. Simply
put, Billy Wimsatt has grown up . . . And he wants us to grow up,
too.--Pete Redington "CounterPunch"
Wimsatt's charisma stems from his courage.
--Cornel West
