""What Punk Taught Me"" is a glimpse into the collectively found freedom of the punk experience in North America. The book showcases the cultural and societal significance of punk through an anthropological lens in order to further reiterate what the subculture is and always will be: principles built on collaboration, DIY and, most of all, a desire to step outside of the norm and resist mainstream conventions. Andi Harriman Author of ""Some Wear Leather, Some Wear Lace""
