Thanks to author Steve Masover for the heads-up on this exciting new title.
San Francisco activist Christopher Kalman has little to show for years spent organizing non-violent marches, speak-outs, blockades, and shutdowns for social and environmental justice. When a shadowy eco-saboteur proposes an attack on genetically engineered agriculture, Christopher is ripe to be drawn into a more dangerous game. His certainty that humankind stands on the brink of ecological ruin drives Christopher to reckless acts and rash alliances, pitting grave personal risk against conscientious passion.
“I couldn’t put Consequence down! Masover … asks thorny, essential questions about personal responsibility and the role of violence in movements for social change.”
– Sam Green, Academy Award-nominated director of The Weather Underground
“Consequence is a great read, full of building tension and excitement … this isn’t just a book about activists—Masover writes about conflicts central to the human situation.”
– Starhawk, author of The Spiral Dance and The Fifth Sacred Thing
