Reviews

“Both activists and prognosticators will find Freedlander’s reporting valuable.”
—Kirkus Reviews

“This book does offer thoughtful insight into a much-maligned branch of liberal thought, and it will appeal to politically inclined readers hoping for change.”
—Booklist

“Offers a vivid report on the growing leftist infrastructure for which AOC’s election in 2018 was merely one step on the anticipated road to a party and, perhaps, a nation transformed.”
—The New York Times
