释义 |
Bomb The Suburbs is a collection of essays by William Upski Wimsatt, a former graffiti tagger. It is a mix of storytelling, journalism, photojournalism and original research, on a broad range of topics, such as suburban sprawl, hip hop culture, youth activism, graffiti, and Chicago. It was photoedited by artist Margarita Certeza Garcia, and published in 1994 by Subway & Elevated Press, a division of Soft Skull Press, with {{ISBN|0-9643855-0-3}}, and republished in 2000.[1] The first edition had 3,000 copies. Bomb The Suburbs led to subsequent books and political activism.[2] In an essay in his No More Prisons compilation, entitled "In Defense of Rich Kids", Wimsatt responded to classist criticism of his affluent background: {{quote|"You can hate me if you want to. I am the beneficiary of a very unfair system. The system gives me tons of free money for doing nothing, yet it forces you to work two and three jobs just to get out of debt."[3]}} References1. ^Worldcat entry {{story-stub}}{{poli-book-stub}}2. ^{{cite news | author=Kristin V.
