Beschreibung

<p><b>'A fascinating journey that illuminates, in often thought-provoking ways, the politics of violence in radical movements' Angela Davis</b><br><br><b>The son of the FBI's most wanted woman tells the electrifying story of a childhood on the run - and a half-century of revolutionary struggle in America</b><br><br>We all grapple with a past that defines us: culture, religion, a family story. But what happens when you inherit a revolution?<br><br>Zayd Ayers Dohrn was born underground. His parents were fugitives after a decade fighting the US government; his mother co-founded a leftist radical group called the Weathermen, and replaced Angela Davis on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted List. All his life, Dohrn's parents said his birth marked a clean break with violent revolutionary struggle but, in this explosive memoir, he discovers that story wasn't entirely true.<br><br><i>Dangerous, Dirty, Violent and Young</i> offers a page-turning account of an infamous family and their life in hiding, as well as the political battles of the '60s and '70s. At its heart it asks big questions: how can a child survive when the place they feel safest - with their family - also puts them in danger? What does it mean to be a good revolutionary, and how should young people today try to change the world?</p>
