In the past two months, I’ve had the chance to talk with Resisters around the US during my book tour. I’ve been in Colorado, Virginia, Maine, Massachusetts, and Iowa and have had the privilege of speaking with activists who are now thinking about the 2020 Election, including people who were in the process of working on early primaries/caucuses during my visit. As I discuss in American Resistance, these activists (who tend to be highly-educated, middle aged, white women) are committed to progressive change and progressive candidates in the US.
Although no one can predict the outcome of the 2020 election at this point, there is ample evidence that the American Resistance will continue their efforts to bring about progressive change by supporting candidates who reflect their concerns.
