Yours for the Revolution by Carissa van den Berk Clark

"Yours for the Revolution is a coming of age story in which a group of individuals gorge an entirely new path for themselves through much adversity. Set in the near future, The World economy has all but collapsed, making the 'great depression' seem like a 'minor recession' in comparison. In the Unites States, state oppression becomes more overt under the guise of a perpetual "war on terrorism". The government and the corporate media conspire to turn the public against progressive social change through an aggressive campaign of misinformation, and manipulation. With nothing to lose, 15 year old Penelope and her best friend Eugene, hit the road and embark on an adventure. Along the way they encounter an extraordinary woman named Liberty who invites them to become part of a movement dedicated to organizing workers, and changing society for the better. However, their lives are drastically altered when corrupt government agencies and law enforcement officials attempt to frame them in Philadelphia for assassinating the mayor, and bombing City Hall."
