A Radical Handbook For Youth. This scrapbook-style collection of essays, excerpts, explanations and images pushes back against a culture that relentlessly demands that kids give up their best ideals, abandon their hopes, forget their ethical objections to dominant life, soothe their rage and accept their fates. From dealing with the cops to dealing with your peers, from school and community to drugs and sex, from race and class to money and mental health, Stay Solid provides essential support for radically inclined teens who believe that its possible for everyone to hold on to their values.
