SUMMARY:Chicago Public Library Event -  Brian Peterson, Author of 'Burning Fight'
DESCRIPTION:Illinois high school English teacher Brian Peterson, author of <em>Burning Fight: The Nineties Hardcore Revolution in Ethics, Politics, Spirit, and Sound</em>, discusses the 1990s hardcore music scene and its related ethical and social movements.&nbsp; '<br><br>'I decided to focus the book on the debates surrounding straight edge, animal rights, politics/activism, and spirituality,' Peterson explains.&nbsp; 'It seemed like you couldn't go to a show in the early nineties without getting into a discussion with someone about one of these topics.&nbsp; Obviously, there were many other important issues, ideas, and, of course, bands from this era, but I also realized I couldn't write an encyclopedia.&nbsp; So, I went with the topics and bands that seemed to resonate most with the people I interviewed.'&nbsp; During the Library program, Mr. Peterson will share recorded examples of hardcore music.
