Baltipink reviewed Take Back the Land by Max Rameau
Review of 'Take Back the Land' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Having grown up in Miami when it was an activist wasteland, I was so happy to read this book. It doesn't just retell the takeover of public land, but also puts it all in social/political context. And while the people and history are specific to Miami, you could write almost the same story in most cities - including DC where I live. So reading about an action that had some positive affects is useful. Though clearly we have a long way to go if we have any chance to stand up to (by which I mean smash) governments and developers.
