Revolution

Revolution
How the World Changed Hands

by James Johnson

Dedication

To every match that didn’t go out.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS


TO THOSE WHO fought back.
To those who refused silence.
To those who lit the spark and paid the price.

And to the voices erased, silenced, or forgotten —
History doesn’t always remember you,
but revolution does.
