3 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
Curated by the Justseeds Artists' Collective, Firebrands is 192 pages of art, world history, and dangerous information. These beautifully illustrated mini-poster pages showcase radicals, dissidents, folk singers, and rabble-rousers, from Emma Goldman to Tupac, Pablo Neruda to Fred Hampton. This is a real people's history, a book packed with dynamite, desire, and, above all, courage.

Pickpick

78 one-page biographies of radicals who worked tirelessly to change and improve the Americas. Includes a lot of people you don't find in similar titles. It took me a while to get through this short book because each profile feels like a teaser; I kept pausing to Google and ended up down an internet rabbit hole. Then I got to the end, where more resources are listed for each person. I lost count of how many more books I added to my to-read list!
