A Book to Get You Fired Up
As Americans, we want to see ourselves as the good guys--the defenders of freedom, democracy, and justice around the world. Yet here we are, creating a patchwork quilt of confusing and Byzantine laws, that make it impossible for millions of our own citizens to participate fully. In Conned, journalist Sasha Abramsky exposes our country's dark underbelly and lets us see these disenfranchised ...
