Summary of Srdja Popovic & Matthew Miller's Blueprint for Revolution

Sinopse

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.Sample Book Insights:#1 The Egyptians who visited Belgrade in 2009 were planning a revolution against their own dictator, Hosni Mubarak. They weren’t aspiring politicians, but college kids like me, who shared the same passions as college kids all over the world: staying up late, drinking a lot, and trying to get a date.#2 I loved Rimtutituki, a Serbian punk band, because they were anti-war and spoke out against Milošević’s dictatorship. In 1992, they held a rare free concert in Belgrade, and when they announced a rare free concert in 1996, my friends and I all promptly skipped class to see them.#3 Otpor was a resistance movement in Serbia that used a logo of a black fist on a white background. They were a strictly nonviolent group, and they believed that they could change the government by sparking small confrontations with the police.#4 I wanted my Egyptian friends to understand that the more popular we became, the more the police tried to scare us away from Republic Square, the more we came back. I wanted them to understand that comedy was at work in Republic Square, and that it was simple yet radical.
