“In this volume, Will Pitt continues to show us why he is one of the foremost progressive essayists of our time. In prose that is striking and often lyrical, Pitt paints a vivid picture of the dangerous and disturbing times in which we are living and casts a bright light on the often illegal conduct of this Administration. Despite this, Pitt never fails to remind us that there is hope and that the power to create change is ours.”
—Congressman John Conyers, Jr.
