Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An estimated twenty million children oppressed by bullying need our help. But, in order to combat bullying, we first must deal with some common misconceptions about bullying: Bullies don't necessarily have low self-esteem and come from abusive homes. Bullying is not a "school problem," and teachers are not the frontline defense. Children who are bullied do not become stronger adults. Bullies cannot be stopped merely with compassion and understanding. In fact, bullying stems from the same roots as racism, bigotry, sexual harassment, and even genocide, and it requires people to combat it in similar ways, Kindness and awareness-two buzzwords in today's anti-bullying movement-will not end bullying on their own. They must be activated by courage, transforming bystanders into righteous, loving protectors. Book jacket.
