Faces of Punk

About the Book

FACES OF PUNK is a photo-gallery, a collection of standouts from more than 15 years of interviewing and photographing radicalized youth on both sides of the Atlantic. If it is a "political statement," its politics are those of inclusion, of universality.

Anthropologist and journalist Peter J. Nebergall, PhD, author of HARD CORE: MARGINALIZED BY CHOICE, VIOLENT SOCIETIES, SHEHARAZADE, THE COLOR OF HIS COAT, GUERRILLA ANTHROPOLOGY, LOST AND FOUND, FROM PICTOGRAPHIC TO COMPUGRAPHIC, and OUTERLOPER, has assembled an all- color collection of images that highlight Punk humanity.

These are not radical fire-breathers. These are not dangerous subversives, or criminals, or pedophiles, and your grandchildren are quite safe. So is your wallet.

Come have a look. What jumps out is not strangeness (what is "strangeness," in the days of Enron?) but humanity. That is something we all need to remember.
