Sander Hicks is a guy who likes to shake things up. He founded Soft Skull Press, an edgy literary imprint that published a biography of George W. Bush (Fortunate Son) that no other publisher would touch (censorship?). He also founded Vox Pop, a bookstore, cafe and political space that became a cultural force in Brooklyn.
His new venture is the Truth Party, a social and political movement with three tenets: USA Peace Leadership, Peace Economics and Freedom from Lies.
Sander Hicks new book Slingshot to the Juggernaut delves into all of these concepts. He also believes we are not being told the truth about 9/11. He is in the midst of an 80 city author tour to get the word out about the book and the Truth Party.
"Following after his heroes Gandhi and Jesus, Hicks uses Slingshot to accomplish an ‘experiment in truth’ that enlivens our hearts and opens our eyes to the central issues of our time. His experiment ranges from autobiographical scenes of direct action to impressive journalistic research and political analysis. He concludes with the offering of an original political program that arises out of heart-felt theological reflections. This rich piece of passionate writing is a huge gift those of us who have wondered about the deeper meanings of 9/11 truth.” —Byron Belitsos, cofounder of 9/11Truth.org and coauthor of A Return to Healing
