    This Hardcover Edition of Tori Amos's "Resistance: A Songwriter's Story of Hope, Change, and Courage" is autographed on a bookplate by Tori Amos.
    A timely and passionate call to action for engaging with our current political moment, from the Grammy-nominated and multiplatinum singer-songwriter and New York Times bestselling author Tori Amos.
    Since the release of her first, career-defining solo album Little Earthquakes, Tori Amos has been one of the music industry’s most enduring and ingenious artists. From her unnerving depiction of sexual assault in “Me and a Gun” to her post-September 11 album, Scarlet’s Walk, to her latest album, Native Invader, her work has never shied away from intermingling the personal with the political.
    Amos began playing piano as a teenager for the politically powerful at hotel bars in Washington, DC, during the formative years of the post-Goldwater and then Koch-led Libertarian and Reaganite movements. The story continues to her time as a hungry artist in Los Angeles to the subsequent three decades of her formidable music career. Amos explains how she managed to create meaningful, politically resonant work against patriarchal power structures-and how her proud declarations of feminism and her fight for the marginalized always proved to be her guiding light. She teaches us to engage with intention in this tumultuous global climate and speaks directly to supporters of #MeToo and #TimesUp, as well as young people fighting for their rights and visibility in the world.
    Filled with compassionate guidance and actionable advice-and using some of the most powerful, political songs in Amos’s canon-this book is for anyone determined to steer the world back in the right direction.

    I once met a shaman who was a big fan of Tori. He mentioned that Tori Amos is a shaman too! After listening to her music and reading the lyrics I can see why he had said that. What a beautiful being she is!

      I met her when I was 17 with my best friend (Dew Drop Inn tour, 1996). When you talk to her she makes it feel like you're the only person around. She gives her complete, undivided attention and looks directly into your eyes. My friend said to me after, "It's like she's reading your soul". 2 years later I went to meet Tori again after a show by her tour bus with a different friend. We were up front by the little barricade with 4 other fans and there was a group of maybe 25 fans behind us. As soon as Tori came out the people behind us rushed forward with things for her to sign, knocking my friend in head. Tori didn't like that. She told them to back up and she proceeded to cradle my friends head and asked her if she was ok. (Could you imagine Tori not only being concerned about you but sticking up for you as well?!) I wish we had had smartphones back then to record it. Cameras were not allowed at that concert so we didn't even get a photo but my friend got her autograph. The first concert in 96 allowed cameras so my best friend was able to get a pic of me meeting Tori. It only has half of me and Tori's arm is cut off, lol, but she did capture the way Tori was looking into my eyes. Honestly, the way she is looking at me in the photo it seems like she's a fan meeting her idol. Obviously I'm no one special but it shows how attentive and respectful she is. If you feel like you have a special connection with her, meeting her will make you believe that even more.

    Tori is the real deal. An awesome talent in writing (incredibly original and moving chordal and melody progressions), vocals and piano. She’s consistently surprised and delighted for so, SO many years and deserves any plaudits and awards she gets. Long may she continue.
