so-soThe importance of this work is extolled in The Bookshop by Evan Friss. It is interesting but it is hard from this time to understand how someone feeling it ridiculous to be governed by a king far away could not acknowledge how the Native Americans might feel being under the power of people who were new to the land. The author yells for freedom while many colonists were enslaving people. Also, the usual antisemitism.
pickOoooooof. I‘ve been chipping at this extremely small book for the majority of the year. I‘d read a section, get depressed, put it aside, pick it up two months later. It‘s very powerful. It‘s very important. #bookspinbingo
pickI was on hold for the audiobook for months at my library. Some parts of this book were a little dry to me but it‘s written by 2 scholars/professors who are very knowledgeable, so I didn‘t mind. This was published during T‘s 1st presidency, & guess what?! He met every point on their checklist for authoritarian government! Big surprise. Would love an update from them now. Interesting info about different countries & their changes in governments.
#wdncw I said what I said & don‘t care….I miss him. And the other day greeting the plane full of veterans 🥹. I miss uneventful news days & days not filled with scandals. It‘s been an exhausting year

I'm excited about my #BookSpin but can't even remember putting the #DoubleSpin title on my list! 🙃
As always, thanks Sarah! ❤️
pickInteresting audiobook that was clear, thought-provoking, and presented me with other material to read.
pickWhile reading, I kept thinking, “A better example of this is actually…”, then, horrifically, realized this was published in 2018. Unfortunately, things have gotten worse, the strategy clearer, and our understanding of fascism is in real time. Ugh.
pickThe electoral college has quite literally NEVER worked. This is a vitally important read. Every law maker should have to read this book, at every level of government. Every high school student should have to read this book. Every college student should have to read it again. The “American Experiment” failed when the first president was elected.
