Title: In Defense of Looting Author: Vicky Osterweil Narrator: Caroline Hewitt Format: mp3 Length: 9 hrs and 52 mins Release date: 09-02-20 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 65 ratings Genres: Civics & Citizenship Publisher's Summary: Looting - a crowd of people publicly, openly, and directly seizing goods - is one of the more extreme actions that can take place in the midst of social unrest. Even self-identified radicals distance themselves from looters, fearing that violent tactics reflect badly on the broader movement. But Vicky Osterweil argues that stealing goods and destroying property are direct, pragmatic strategies of wealth redistribution and improving life for the working class - not to mention the brazen messages these methods send to the police and the state.
