Más información sobre el libro
The book examines the fractured relationship between the federal government and communities in crisis, particularly during natural disasters. It highlights the resurgence of mutual aid as a vital resource amid state spending cuts, drawing parallels to historical movements like the Black Panther Party. The author explores the complexities of mutual aid, questioning whether it empowers communities or perpetuates exploitation. By analyzing disaster relief from the 1970s to the COVID-19 pandemic, the work addresses the implications of climate change and the evolving dynamics between state, market, and grassroots efforts.
