An urgent and accessible handbook for peaceful protesters, activists, and community organizers-anyone trying to defend their rights, hold their government accountable, or change the world
Blueprint for Revolution will teach you how to
• make oppression backfire by playing your opponents' strongest card against them
• identify the "almighty pillars of power" in order to shift the balance of control
• dream big, but start small: learn how to pick battles you can win
• listen to what people actually care about in order to incorporate their needs into your revolutionary vision
• master the art of compromise to bring together even the most disparate groups
• recognize your allies and view your enemies as potential partners
• use humor to make yourself heard, defuse potentially violent situations, and "laugh your way to victory"
