Synopsis "American Defiance: Classic Writings from the Colonial Period through the 19th Century (in English)"
Feminist ass-kickers, antinomian homeboys, race rebels, abolitionist saints, total pacifists, anarchist children of nature: America has produced amazing anti-authoritarians at every phase of its history. This book includes many under-known and incandescent acts of rebellion by such courageous subversives as John Woolman, Sarah Grimke, David Walker, Lucretia Mott, Nathaniel Peabody Rogers, Josiah Warren, and Voltairine de Cleyre. Along with famous essays of Emerson and Thoreau, we get substantial selections from Sitting Bull and Tecumseh; an almost-unknown briliant essay on race by Frederick Douglass; wild sex from Angela Heywood. It is a beautiful heritage. Fight the power.
