Summary

In The Revolt Against Democracy, Pasquale De Marco exposes the betrayal of the American people by those who claim to lead them. Drawing on a wealth of historical and contemporary evidence, this book reveals how elites have rigged the system to benefit themselves at the expense of the majority.

This book documents the erosion of trust in government, the decline of the middle class, and the hollowing out of American culture. It shows how elites have:

* Gerrymandered electoral districts and suppressed voter turnout to maintain their power
* Enacted policies that benefit the wealthy and corporations at the expense of ordinary Americans
* Eroded civil liberties and expanded the surveillance state
* Attacked traditional institutions like the family, religion, and patriotism
* Promoted a culture of division and scapegoating that pits Americans against each other

The Revolt Against Democracy is a clarion call for all Americans who care about the future of their country. It is a call to action for those who believe that democracy is worth fighting for. This book offers a roadmap for renewal, outlining the steps that must be taken to create a more just, equitable, and sustainable society.

In these pages, you will learn:

* How elites have subverted democracy and undermined the will of the people
* The devastating consequences of the decline of the middle class
* The erosion of civil liberties and the rise of the surveillance state
* The attack on traditional institutions and the loss of shared values
* The role that ordinary citizens can play in renewing American democracy

The Revolt Against Democracy is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the challenges facing American democracy today and who is committed to fighting for a better future.

    There’s an entire generation of South African women who ought to read this book.’ – Sara-Jayne King, author of Killing Karoline 
  
‘Ougat is masterfully written – raw, unpretentious, unsettling. Shana Fife captures all the darkness from her body, psyche and life with fearless honesty and transparency.’ – Frazer Barry, award-winning theatre practitioner, writer and musician 
By the time Shana Fife is 25 she has two kids from different fathers. To the Coloured people she grew up around, she is a jintoe, a jezebel, jas, a woman with mileage on the pussy. She is alone, she has no job and, as she is constantly reminded by her community, she is pretty much worthless and unloveable. How did she become this woman, the epitome of everything she was conditioned to strive not to be? 
Unsettlingly honest and brutally blunt, Ougat is Shana Fife’s story of survival: of surviving the social conditioning of her Cape Flats upbringing, of surviving sexual violence and depression and of ultimately escaping a cycle of abuse. 
A powerful, fresh and disarming new voice – Shana’s writing is like nothing you’ve read before.

    The Book of Lamentations is a collection of poetic laments for the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 BCE. In the Hebrew Bible it appears in the Ketuvim ("Writings") as one of the Five Megillot (or "Five Scrolls") alongside the Song of Songs, Book of Ruth, Ecclesiastes and the Book of Esther although there is no set order. In the Christian Old Testament it follows the Book of Jeremiah, as the prophet Jeremiah is its traditional author. However, according to modern scholarship, while the destruction of Jerusalem by Babylon in 586/7 BCE forms the background to the poems, they were probably not written by Jeremiah. Most likely, each of the book's chapters was written by a different anonymous poet, and they were then joined to form the book.

    There have been countless books, articles, and televised reports in recent years about the almost mythic "white working class," a tide of commentary that has obscured the labor, and even the very existence, of entire groups of working people, including everyday Black workers. In this brilliant corrective, Black Folk, acclaimed historian Blair LM Kelley restores the Black working class to the center of the American story. 
 
 
 
Spanning two hundred years—from one of Kelley's earliest known ancestors, an enslaved blacksmith, to the essential workers of the Covid-19 pandemic—Black Folk highlights the lives of the laundresses, Pullman porters, domestic maids, and postal workers who established the Black working class as a force in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Taking jobs white people didn't want and confined to segregated neighborhoods, Black workers found community in intimate spaces, from stoops on city streets to the backyards of washerwomen, where multiple generations labored from dawn to dusk, talking and laughing in a space free of white supervision. As millions of Black people left the violence of the American South for the promise of a better life in the North and West, these networks of resistance and joy sustained early arrivals and newcomers alike and laid the groundwork for organizing for better jobs, better pay, and equal rights.
