Dissent - by Ralph Young (Paperback)

Dissent: The History of an American Idea by Ralph Young is a comprehensive and engaging book that explores the role of dissent in shaping the United States from colonial times to the present day.

With a focus on both celebrated figures and ordinary citizens, Young reveals how dissent has been a driving force behind major social, political, and cultural changes throughout American history. From the Puritan Anne Hutchinson and Native American chief Powhatan in the 17th century to the Occupy and Tea Party movements in the 21st century, Dissent examines the key role that dissent has played in shaping the United States.

Young's narrative is characterized by fast-paced and engaging prose, and is filled with important insights and observations that will resonate with readers interested in making a stronger democracy and a better future for their children. With a nuanced perspective on events and people that are too often reduced to clichés in our collective memory, Dissent may be the most important revisionist history of the nation since Howard Zinn's A People's History.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn more about the rich tradition of dissent that has always pushed America towards a fairer and more representative democracy.
