Buttons, Bolt Cutters & Barricades

Bag om Buttons, Bolt Cutters & Barricades

Buttons, Bolt Cutters and Barricades, Texas Anti-Nuke Actions, is a first-hand account of the historical actions taken in trying to stop or at least slow the construction of nuclear power plants in the United States and the Comanche Peak plant in particular. The strategical use of nonviolent direct action including civil disobedience by the Comanche Peak Life Force activists should be an inspiration to others in the fight for clean air, clean water, and safe renewable energy. American history is not the story of a few great men, but of grassroots people rising up to confront abusive power elites. Jerry Palmer''s first-hand account of the people''s resistance to nuclear power at the Comanche Peak nuke is a riveting example of that history. The courage and daring of these volunteers should be an inspiration to others in the struggle for clean air, water, and safe renewable energy - a story that will make you think and want to take some direct action of your own. - Jim Hightower Author, radio commentator, editor of the Hightower Lowdown, and host of The Hightower Chat & Chew Happy Hour.
