" Army Of None is a direct challenge to the militarization of American youth. It's a toolkit, a practical how-to manual, for the emerging politics of non-cooperation and direct action. Army Of None is published at a pivotal moment in the peace movement." -Paul Rockwell, Counterpunch " Army of None is a manual for opponents of the Iraq war who want to cut off its supply of cannon fodder." -Jeremy Brecher, Truthout

Synopsis
This text is a comprehensive guide to counter-recruitment campaigns from personal counseling to legislative change to direct action. It provides a frightening look into the world of military recruitment that the authors believe everyone in the United States should know about, and the hopeful stories, inspiration, and tools necessary to do something about it., Every day in the United States, military recruiters enter the halls of high schools equipped with a goodie bag of promises and free copies of the US Army's official new video game America's Army. Assurances of non-combat positions and college money made largely to teens of colour and low-income communities rarely materialize upon real-life service. Army of None is a comprehensive guide to counter-recruitment campaigns, from personal counselling to legislative change to direct action. Contains compelling photos and artwork, spoken word, sample fact sheets and more., An unprecedented and practical resource for activists, ARMY OF NONE provides a frightening look into the world of military recruitment in the U.S. that everyone should know about, and the hopeful stories, inspiration and tools necessary to do something about it., Uniformed U.S. Army Officers lunch with students in elementary school cafeterias. Army training programs including rifle and pistol instruction replace physical education in middle schools. Like never before, military recruiters are entering the halls of U.S. schools with unchecked access in an attempt to bolster a military in crisis. However, even as these destructive efforts to militarize youth accelerate, so do the creative and powerful efforts of students, community members, and veterans to challenge them. Today, the counter recruitment movement--from counseling to poetry slams to citywide lobbying efforts--has become one of the most practical ways to tangibly resist U.S. policy that cuts funding for education and social programs while promoting war and occupation. Without enough soldiers, the U.S. cannot sustain its empire. Army of None exposes the real story behind the military-recruitment complex, and offers guides, tools, and resources for education and action, and people power strategies to win.
