Turnout! (Universalizing Resistance)

This book assembles the perspectives and knowledge of top political and voting turnout specialists to show how Trump can be defeated in the 2020 election. Turnout!offers the political strategy for approaching "emergency elections," such as the 2020 presidential race, and spells out the nuts and bolts for civic groups and individuals to effectively turn out the vote. Arguing for and facilitating new coalitions and a united front between social movement groups with the Democratic Party, Turnout!is both a creative work of political vision combined with a detailed manual and talking points for turning out millions of non-voters, who must vote to send Trump and his GOP and corporate cronies packing. Both community and movement groups as well as individuals will find this an invaluable resource for mobilizing voters who can change America's future. Contributors include top officials and progressive leaders in the most effective and diverse voter turnout organizations in the US. They have years of experience in voter turnout operations, and include Voto Latino, Voter.org and She the People. Turnout!shows the political strategies underlying their work and the nitty gritty tactics; these show how to reach and mobilize millions of discouraged, apathetic, or suppressed voters, including low-income, African-American, Latinx, student and youth, and working-class voters. The book shows that turnout is a community as well as individual act. It fleshes out the politics of connection, community building and empowerment that will bring out many millions of new voters to build a stronger and more diverse democracy in the US.

A People's Guide to Greater Boston reveals the region’s richness and vibrancy in ways that traditional area guides and tourist destinations neglect. In affirming the hopes, interests and struggles of those on the receiving end of unjust forms of power, the book reveals a history of endeavors from below that have played an immense role in shaping the city’s history and geography. Uncovering unique stories and places central to the lives of the people of Greater Boston over four centuries, this guide takes readers to sites of oppression, resistance, organizing and transformation in Boston and outlying neighborhoods and municipalities—from Lawrence, Lowell, and Lynn to Concord and Plymouth. It highlights tales of the places and people involved in movements to abolish slavery, to end war and militarism, to achieve Native sovereignty, racial equity, gender justice, and sexual liberation, and to secure workers’ rights. In doing so, this one-of-a-kind guide points the way to a radically democratic Greater Boston, one that sparks social and environmental justice and inclusivity for all.
