• While there are a handful of books available to help teenagers cope with different issues, such as Dan Savage's It Gets Better and Grace Llewellyn's The Teenage Liberation Handbook, there is no collection that addresses such a broad array of issues-education, family, race, community, sex, drugs, relationships-central to growing up while maintaining your political identity.
• The drive to publish this work came from frequent requests for a collection of this kind.
• This book is a project of the Purple Thistle Youth Center in Vancouver, coordinated by Matt Hern, but largely developed for youth, by youth. It will resonate well with teens who are looking for peer-driven analyses of the issues that they face.
• The contributor line-up, which includes, Dan Savage, Noam Chomsky, and Grace Llewellyn ensures that this collection will be of interest not just to teens, but to adults who are interested to learn about the challenges today's radical youth face.
• Matt Hern's voice ties this collection together, and guarantees built-in readership due to acclaim for his previous work on education, which includes Everywhere All the Time: A New Deschooling Reader, Field Day: Getting Society Out of Schoool, and Deschooling Our Lives.
