Synopsis

As the practice of democracy becomes a lost art, Americans are becoming increasingly desperate for a restored nation. Many have a general sense that the "system" is in disorder, if not on the road to functional collapse. Although it is easy to identify our political problems, the solutions are not always as clear. In Give Me Liberty: A Handbook for American Revolutionaries, bestselling author Naomi Wolf illustrates the breathtaking changes that can take place when ordinary citizens engage in the democratic system the way the founders intended and tells you how to use that system, right now, to change your life, your community, and ultimately the nation.

True enough, and had Wolf fully developed this theme she could have produ......more

I am reading this in the year where the Arab spring started, and for the past couple of months in London, a camp settlement constituting a protest is based in St. Pauls and many other camps are part of a worldwide 'Occupy' movement. Opposing the government and making voices heard couldn't be any mor......more

I am SO thankful Ms. Wolf wrote this book. Her previous work, End of America, left me so depressed and scared, that I really needed this one. This book is the uplifting response to End of America -- it's like "Ok, I told you the dangers we're facing, now I'll tell you what you can do about them." Min......more

Good info for becoming a political activist, from a Democrat activist. I can't agree with everything she advocates (pushing for direct democracy, etc.) but you need to read this if they ever want to compete using LEGAL methods of activism; no info on how D's cheat, but plenty of how to worship polit......more
