BREAKDOWN: Violence in Search of U (you)-Turn by Dr. Carolyn LaDelle Bennett
Policy has power to destroy and to heal. BREAKDOWN wrestles with both the manifestations of a pervasive violence and a means toward mending. It lays out the problem in U.S. foreign and domestic affairs and offers a bailout—a turn around, a U-turn in fresh ideas.
American author and independent journalist—a former Peace Corps teacher—Dr. Carolyn LaDelle Bennett decries the way of violence and argues for community consciousness, words over war in content and execution of U.S. foreign and domestic policies. Her book offers a fully documented and indexed account of regressive status quo and progressive society.
This compelling political manifesto transports readers from war-torn southwest central Asia to Africa’s Horn to Colombia’s cocoa plantations and Afghanistan’s poppy fields to education deficits-USA and homelessness on the streets of LA. The trip drives home the old truth that endless war is lightning striking the foundations of liberty and causing BREAKDOWN.
Bennett’s internationalist educator nonpartisan progressivist credentials shine throughout this well-orchestrated dialogue of current affairs and historical contexts in violence, rallying readers to assist a ‘U-turn’ from America’s way of violence into a new progressive society.
This eye-opening book is a BREAKDOWN turned around by a consciousness of world and domestic society.
