During his
campaign for President in 2016, Senator Bernie Sanders repeatedly stated that
the future of America was dependent upon its willingness to start a political
revolution. Real change never occurs from the top down - it always happens from
the bottom up. That's what he said when he ran for President, and that's what he
believes now more than ever.
At a time of
massive and growing wealth inequality, with the US moving closer and closer to
an oligarchic form of society, and in the shadow of the most reactionary Presidency
in the history of the Republic, Sanders is calling for an unprecedented
grassroots political movement to stand up to the greed of the billionaire class
and the politicians they own.
And the good
news is, progress is being made.
In this
important new book, America's most popular political figure speaks about what
he's been doing to oppose the Trump agenda and strengthen the progressive
movement, how America can go forward as a nation and the impact that can have on
the global stage.
In an era
that leaves many would-be liberal and progressive voters feeling frustrated
about politics, Bernie Sanders shows what he stands for, not just
what he stands against. In this book, he details the core values of
the progressive movement and translates them into the actions that will truly
uplift the nation and the world.
