Product Information

Here's what the critics have to say about William Upski Wimsatt's previous work: Spiritual heir to Norman Mailer. -The Atlantic Wimsatt's charisma stems from his courage. -Cornel West Bomb the Suburbs and No More Prisons are cult classics deftly reflecting the hip-hop generation's maturation. -Miami New Times A refreshing voice for Generation X. -Library Journal Ahead of the curve. -Spin As a potty-mouthed graffiti writer from the South Side of Chicago, William Upski Wimsatt electrified the literary and hip-hop world with two of the most successful underground classic books in a generation, Bomb the Suburbs (1994) and No More Prisons (1999), which, combined, sold more than ninety thousand copies. In Please Don't Bomb the Suburbs, Wimsatt weaves a first-person tour of America's cultural and political movements from 1985-2010. It's a story about love, growing up, a generation coming of age, and a vision for the movement young people will create in the new decade. With humor, storytelling, and historical insight, Wimsatt lays out a provocative vision for the next twenty-five years of personal and historical transformation. Never heard of Billy Wimsatt before?
