Product info
Straight edge--hardcore punk's drug-free offshoot--has thrived as a subculture since the early 1980s. Its influence has reached far beyond musical genres and subcultural divides. Today it is more diverse and richly complex than ever, and in the past decade alcohol and drug use have become a much-discussed issue in radical politics, not least due to the hard work, dedication, and commitment to social and environmental justice found among straight-edge activists. <i>X: Straight Edge and Radical Sobriety</i> is Gabriel Kuhn's highly anticipated follow-up to his critically acclaimed <i>Sober Living for the Revolution</i>. Extensively illustrated and combining original interviews and essays with manifestos and reprints from zines and pamphlets, <i>X </i>is a vital portrait of the wide spectrum of people who define straight edge culture today. In the sprawling scope of this book, the notion of straight edge as a bastion of white, middle-class, cis males is confronted and challenged. <i>X</i> takes a piercing look at religion, identity, feminism, aesthetics, harm reduction, and much more. It is both a call to action and an elaborate redefinition of straight edge and radical sobriety.
