A startlingly timely and graphic look at resistance around the globe. In recent years the world has borne witness to various confrontations, many of them violent, between pivotal gatherings of the world's political and economic leaders and anarchist protest groups. This politically astute and up-to-the-minute graphic novel paints a new picture of global protest, documenting the history of movements around the world, from historic protests to the current Occupy movement. The dramatic accounts are informative, vivid and do much to address the current myths about protests.
