with Bernadine Dohrn, former Professor of Law at Northwestern University
Involved with the Weather Underground Organization, an American militant, radical left-wing organization founded on the Ann Arbor campus of the University of Michigan in 1969. The pair are life partners.
In an era defined by mass incarceration, endless war, economic crisis, catastrophic environmental destruction, and a political system offering more of the same, radical social transformation has never been more urgent—or seemed more remote.
A manifesto for movement-makers in extraordinary times, Demand the Impossible! urges us to imagine a world beyond what this rotten system would have us believe is possible.
In critiquing the world around us, insurgent educator and activist Bill Ayers uncovers cracks in that system, raising the horizons for radical change, and envisioning strategies for building the movement we need to make a world worth living in.
