Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Why would these people choose to get arrested, attacked, jailed, screamed at, and even deported when they could be peacefully looking at beautiful paintings or watching tennis? The answer is more powerful than any army, police, billionaire, or oil company."- ADAM McKAY, writer and director of Don't Look Up and The Big Short, from the ForewordYou saw the soup on the Sunflowers. The young woman on the tennis court. The paint on the Roman Senate. The bodies on the motorway. You almost certainly formed an opinion.Written collectively by twelve organizers from the A22 Network - the coalition behind Last Generation, Just Stop Oil, Dernière Rénovation, Ultima Generazione, and Renovate Switzerland - Soup Throwers and Super Gluers is the first inside account of the movement that made civil disobedience impossible to ignore.Part movement memoir, part strategic guide, this book is bracingly honest reckoning with what the actions cost the people who took them. Prison sentences. Police violence. Burnouts. Relationships that did not survive.They chose what they chose knowing what it would cost. They knew exactly what they were doing. They are ready to be understood.
