The Marginalized Majority: Claiming Our Power in a Post-Truth America Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

Since the 2016 election, pundits have already been saying our nation hasn’t been even more divided-that if progressives want to reclaim power, we need to be ‘pragmatic,’ reach over the aisle, and appearance past identification politics.

But what if we’re getting the story all of the wrong?

In The Marginalized Bulk, Onnesha Roychoudhuri makes the galvanizing case our voices are already the majority-and our plurality of identities is not only our very best strength but can be in the indisputable core of effective progressive change throughout history.

From the civil rights motion towards the Women’s March, Saturday Night Live to the mainstream mass media, Roychoudhuri holds the common myths about our disenfranchisement up to the light, illuminating narratives from history that reveal we’ve far more power than we’re often resulted in believe. With both clear-eyed hope and electrifying power, she examines our ideas about what’s possible, and what’s necessary-opening up space to use it, brand-new realities, and, eventually, survival.

Now, Roychoudhuri urges us, may be the time to combat like the bulk we are already.
