Michael Ryan is a Montréal-based translator and copy editor. From the mid-1970s to the mid-1990s, Ryan was active in Montréal’s Marxist and antiauthoritarian left. (He insists that the two are not mutually exclusive.) Ryan continues to believe that if we want true social change we’re going to have to kick it over.

Praise
“Although Churchill couches his psychological analysis in much more
polite terms than I would, he believes that some white
upper-middle-class activists are deeply conflicted about whether they
really want to dismantle capitalism and give up their position of
privilege.”
—Greanville Post
“The book’s main thrust is to analyze and tear apart the ideology of
pacifism, explaining how it is, in many ways, a counter-revolutionary
ideology.”
—Irish Republican News
