Publisher Description: "The Bars represent me finding my people. We were like a tribe. Together we are strong whereas before we felt weak and ostracized." Barred for Life is a photo documentary cataloging the legacy of Punk Rock pioneers Black Flag, through stories, interviews, and photographs of diehard fans who wear their iconic logo, The Bars, conspicuously tattooed upon their skin. Author Stewart Ebersole provides a personal narrative describing what made the existence of Punk Rock such an important facet of his and many other people's lives, and the role that Black Flag's actions and music played in soundtracking the ups and downs of living as cultural outsiders. "The Bars say 'I'm not one of them, ' and it also lets the right people know that I am one of them." "It is the black flag of anarchism, and that is the opposite of the white flag of surrender." |
