In Volume One: Building Movements and Fighting to Win, McBay describes the need for resistance, and paints a portrait of what a thriving movement might look like today. Citing successful movements such as the American civil rights movement’s Deacons for Defense and Justice, the anti-colonial revolutions in Guinea and Cape Verde, and activist groups such as ACT UP, McBay deftly illustrates how to organize movements and encourage enlistment, while also noting the necessary precautions one must take to protect radical circles from infiltration and collapse.
