“Mark loves to dance with words: he finds struggle in right as well as wrong, all the while keeping time with a cadence of thoughts and approaches. He is a free-agent believer open to possibility. His decision to reflect on his personal journey through what he refers to as ‘revolution’ may lull the reader with the packaging, as the written word is often mistaken for the truth. The fact that questions in a written form can at times resemble answers is a danger for most activist writers, as well as writing activists. Be that as it may, it is Mark’s content, the inexhaustible work ethic and boundless hope for the better, that serves as the true ballast of his conviction.”
—Ian MacKaye

—Jello Biafra

“Mark Andersen is the living Holden Caulfield, committed to making the world a better place for all its children.

—Elaine Brown, former Chairman of the Black Panther Party
