Democracy in Retrograde author Emily Amick presents her manifesto on how to fight for positive change.
Join the Bards Alley booksellers on Tuesday, July 16 as we welcome debut author Emily Amick. She will discuss her new book Democracy in Retrograde: How to Make Changes Big and Small in Our Country and in Our Lives.
Co-written with Betches Media cofounder Sami Sage, Democracy in Retrograde offers readers a practical guide to civic engagement, incorporating interactive exercises and quizzes along with stories of ordinary people who have made an impact. It argues that political action involves not only voting, but also self-reflection and community participation. And taking action is the most powerful antidote to despair.
