Requiem for the American Dream: The 10 Principles of Concentration of Wealth & Power
Noam Chomsky
Noam Chomsky skewers the fundamental tenets of neoliberalism and casts a clear, cold, patient eye on the economic facts of life. What are the ten principles of concentration of wealth and power at work in America today? They’re simple enough: reduce democracy, shape ideology, redesign the economy, shift the burden onto the poor and middle […]
Masters of Mankind
Noam Chomsky
Essays and lectures by Noam Chomsky, 1969-2013, pp. 167, Haymarket Books, 2014. In this collection of essays, many in book form for the first time, Noam Chomsky exposes the real nature of state power. With unrelenting logic, he holds the arguments of empire up to critical examination and shatters the myths of those who protect […]
Media Control: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda
Noam Chomsky
Chomsky’s back-pocket classic on wartime propaganda and opinion control has been updated and expanded into a two-section book and redesigned following the acclaimed format of his Open Media anti-war bestseller, 9-11. The new edition of Media Control also includes “The Journalist from Mars,” Chomsky’s 2002 talk on the media coverage of America’s “new war on terrorism.” Chomsky […]
Revolutionary Love: A Political Manifesto to Heal and Transform the World
Michael Lerner
From social theorist and psychotherapist Rabbi Michael Lerner comes a strategy for a new socialism built on love, kindness, and compassion for one another. Revolutionary Love proposes a method to replace what Lerner terms the “capitalist globalization of selfishness” with a globalization of generosity, prophetic empathy, and environmental sanity. Lerner challenges liberal and progressive forces to move […]
An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States
Roxanne Dunbar-Ortíz
This class-savvy peoples’ history explores the silences haunting our national narrative. Like her friend and colleague, historian Howard Zinn, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz is a great rememberer and researcher. This brilliant bottom-up people’s history places settler-colonialism and genocide exactly where they belong: as foundational to the existence of the U.S. Told from the perspective of Indigenous peoples and […]
Failure to Quit: Reflections of an Optimistic Historian
Howard Zinn
In this lively collection, Zinn discusses historical and political topics, ranging from Columbus; The Bill of Rights; the role of the Supreme Court; and higher education. Failure to Quit includes two of his most famous essays: “The Optimism of Uncertainty” and “The Problem is Civil Obedience” as well as the classic Barsamian-Zinn interview: “Who Controls the Past […]
Howard Zinn on Race
Howard Zinn
Howard Zinn on Race is Zinn’s choice of the shorter writings and speeches that best reflect his views on America’s most taboo topic. As chairman of the history department at all-black women’s Spelman College, Zinn was an outspoken supporter of student activists in the nascent civil rights movement. In “The Southern Mystique,” he tells of how […]
How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them
Jason Stanley
As the child of refugees of World War II Europe and a renowned philosopher and scholar of propaganda, Jason Stanley has a deep understanding of how democratic societies can be vulnerable to fascism: Nations don’t have to be fascist to suffer from fascist politics. In fact, fascism’s roots have been present in the United States […]
Retargeting Iran
David Barsamian, Ervand Abrahamian, Noam Chomsky, Nader Hashemi, Azadeh Moaveni, Trita Parsi
“ReTargeting Iran is not a travelogue about Iran but a facts-only objective account of where America has gone wrong, stupidly wrong—yet again—in its foreign policy, dominated by a mythical belief that Iran has an active nuclear weapons program. All one needs to know about the threat is this: as of mid-2020, the United States had […]
Men Explain Things To Me
Rebecca Solnit
Rebecca Solnit’s comic, scathing essay, “Men Explain Things to Me,” went viral and inspired the word mansplaining. She took on what often goes wrong in conversations between men and women. She wrote about men who wrongly assume they know things and wrongly assume women don’t, about why this arises, and how this aspect of the […]
Climate Crisis and the Global Green New Deal: The Political Economy of Saving the Planet
Noam Chomsky, Robert Pollin
In this compelling new book, Noam Chomsky, the world’s leading public intellectual, and Robert Pollin, a renowned progressive economist, map out the catastrophic consequences of unchecked climate change—and present a realistic blueprint for change: the Green New Deal. Together, Chomsky and Pollin show how the forecasts for a hotter planet strain the imagination: vast stretches […]
Hope in the Dark: Untold Histories, Wild Possibilities
Rebecca Solnit
A book as powerful and influential as Rebecca Solnit‘s Men Explain Things to Me, her Hope in the Dark was written to counter the despair of radicals at a moment when they were focused on their losses and had turned their back to the victories behind them and the unimaginable changes soon to come. In it, she makes a […]
