Disaster and resistance
Comics and Landscapes for the 21st century
TOBOCMAN, Seth
Disaster and Resistance outlines pressing social and political struggles at the dawn of the twenty-first century from post 9-11 New York City, to Israel and Palestine, to Iraq and New Orleans. Fans of Seth's classic works, You Don't Have to do People Over to Survive, and War in the Neighborhood, will see that his punch has not softened as his new work skewers the individuals and institutions reaping havoc across the globe today. In his bold comic style, Seth chronicles events as they happen, musing not on the chaos of instability and fear, but on the struggle against it. Includes an introduction by Mumia Abu-Jamal. This book is a call to action, so listen up.
"For years now Seth Tobocman has been taking on the powers that be for all of us. He's not slowing down either - check out the contents of this volume." -Harvey Pekar, groundbreaking graphic novelist and author of American Splendor series
"I repeatedly tried to get more of Tobocman's work onto our pages, but it was deemed too radical. Tobocman won't compromise his principles for money or fashion." -Jerelle Kraus, former art director at the New York Times
"A graphic revelation, an artistic and political document of enormous value in our troubled world." -Paul Buhle, esteemed historian of American radicalism.

Noam Chomsky - 911 seven stories
Noam Chomsky comments on the the new war on terrorism, U.S. foreign policy, Osama bin Laden, U.S. involvement with Afghanistan, and the long-term implications of America's military attacks abroad. Based on a composite of interviews conducted in the month following the 9-11 attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center, Chomsky's impeccable knowledge of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and South Asia sheds light on the rapidly shifting balance of world power. Speaking out against responding to violence with violence, Chomsky hopes that "an aroused public within the more free and democratic societies can direct policies towards a much more humane and honorable course."

Backyard Composting also introduces the various types of composting
