S. Senator and leading Democratic candidate for president―about the fierce fight for democracy and social justice, and what we need to do next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Where We Go from Here, New York Times bestselling author Bernie Sanders reveals the blueprint for his 2020 presidential run by chronicling the day-by-day struggles that he and his progressive colleagues have waged over the last two years in the fight against Donald Trump's reactionary agenda and for a government that works for all, not just wealthy campaign contributors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt home, Sanders has helped lead the fight for Medicare for all, fought for workers desperate for higher wages, and supported immigrants in the DACA program and children affected by gun violence. He has stood with the people of Puerto Rico devastated by Hurricane Maria, as well as veterans, teachers, the incarcerated, the persecuted, and all those who are too often ignored by Washington. Abroad, his voice has been clear that we need a foreign policy that strives for peace―not war―and international cooperation to address the crisis of climate change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe good news is we're making progress. People all across America are standing up to the most dishonest and reactionary president in our history. They're taking on establishment politicians who've turned a blind eye to the concerns of everyday citizens. They're fighting back against the oligarchs of Wall Street, who would happily see our children do worse than their parents so long as the Dow does better. And the general public continually demonstrates that we are more united than the media would allow us to believe, and what we agree on are largely progressive ideals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintaining a vibrant democracy has never been easy, and in these dangerous and unprecedented times, it has been more difficult than ever. Bernie Sanders shows, however, that we can repair the damage Trump has done―and create a nation based on the principles of economic, social, racial, and environmental justice., ISBN13: 9781250163264 ISBN10: 1250163269 Material Type: hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46112278511779,"sku":"AZ_STR_H0000C8A","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/81gv7uxz9EL.jpg?v=1754650239"},{"product_id":"detained-and-deported-stories-of-immigrant-families-under-fire","title":"Detained and Deported: Stories of Immigrant Families Under Fire","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn intimate look at the people ensnared by the US detention and deportation system, the largest in the world\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn a bright Phoenix morning, Elena Santiago opened her door to find her house surrounded by a platoon of federal immigration agents. Her children screamed as the officers handcuffed her and drove her away. Within hours, she was deported to the rough border town of Nogales, Sonora, with nothing but the clothes on her back. Her two-year-old daughter and fifteen-year-old son, both American citizens, were taken by the state of Arizona and consigned to foster care. Their mother’s only offense: living undocumented in the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eImmigrants like Elena, who’ve lived in the United States for years, are being detained and deported at unprecedented rates. Thousands languish in detention centers—often torn from their families—for months or even years. Deportees are returned to violent Central American nations or unceremoniously dropped off in dangerous Mexican border towns. Despite the dangers of the desert crossing, many immigrants will slip across the border again, stopping at nothing to get home to their children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing on years of reporting in the Arizona-Mexico borderlands, journalist Margaret Regan tells their poignant stories. Inside the massive Eloy Detention Center, a for-profit private prison in Arizona, she meets detainee Yolanda Fontes, a mother separated from her three small children. In a Nogales soup kitchen, deportee Gustavo Sanchez, a young father who’d lived in Phoenix since the age of eight, agonizes about the risks of the journey back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRegan demonstrates how increasingly draconian detention and deportation policies have broadened police powers, while enriching a private prison industry whose profits are derived from human suffering. She also documents the rise of resistance, profiling activists andyoung immigrant “Dreamers” who are fighting for the rights of the undocumented.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCompelling and heart-wrenching, Detained and Deported offers a rare glimpse into the lives of people ensnared in America’s immigration dragnet., ISBN13: 9780807071946 ISBN10: 0807071943 Material Type: hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46115113926819,"sku":"A-STR_UBD_H0000QW7","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/81Y9cop4rGL.jpg?v=1754741919"}],"url":"https:\/\/usedbookdepot.com\/collections\/political-advocacy-books.oembed","provider":"Used Book Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
