A new book by the beloved and brilliant co-host of NPR's On the Media, American Manifesto calls for an end to finger-pointing and a beginning to self-reflection as we look ahead to the 2020 American election and what brought us to today
Garfield, in accessible, well-paced prose, looks at the ways in which American individualism, technology-induced identity bubbles, and partisan media purporting to be unbiased have all led to the slow, 50+ year rise of what we now call Trumpism
Rather than mere bleak analysis, American Manifesto offers hope and actionable ways forward for citizens looking to move beyond polarized, partisan politics to effect real change and bolster our American democracy
