"Objective journalism, this is not."--The New York Observer "The balanced book on Occupy I've been waiting for: sharp journalistic observation and insider knowledge, big picture knowledge of movement dynamics and attention to the telling details, writing that's witty and poignant. Schneider models for engaged intellectuals and thoughtful activists how to reflect on breakthrough events."--George Lakey, Swarthmore College, activist and author of Toward a Living Revolution "This book is a gift and a tool. Full of thick descriptions and the voices of the protagonists themselves, you feel as if you are there, participating in the assemblies and occupations, feeling the joys and frustrations of the movement. A must-read."--Marina Sitrin, author of Everyday Revolutions: Horizontalism and Autonomy in Argentina "It wasn't the revolution, but for a while, Occupy sure damn felt like it could be. Notes from the Occupy Apocalypse takes us back to those first few days of Occupy Wall Street, with all its beauty, its chaos, and its ridiculously long general assemblies. With a strong, often hilarious voice and the critical compassion that can only come from someone who camped out in Zuccotti Park himself, Nathan Schneider goes beyond the simplistic divides (violence or nonviolence? a movement or a moment?) to offer a true sense of what Occupy was. It was a diverse, complicated people, struggling to live up to its own revolutionary ideals. In short, Occupy was America, in all of our tragic glory." --Josh Healey, winner of Mario Savio Award, activist and author of Hammertime
