Renowned journalist Malaika Jabali debunks myths, centres forgotten
socialists of colour who have shaped our world, and shows us
socialism is not all Marx and Bernie Bros-it can be pretty sexy.
We've all dated someone who took control of the relationship-you
know, someone who makes you feel like you're unhappy because you're
just not putting in the work, or it's all in your head. But when
you think about trying to meet new people, it feels terrifying.
Like, have you looked at Tinder recently? It's rough out there!
Your tough-love new best friend, award-winning journalist, policy
attorney, and life-long socialist Malaika Jabali is here to say: we
are all in a generations-long toxic relationship with Capitalism,
and it is time to get the h*ll out of there and move ALONG. She
gives you everything you need to know about what a healthy
relationship could actually look like, issue by issue-from
healthcare and housing to the whole concept of American
democracy-with our new boo: Socialism. And no, Socialism isn't the
boring, grey, authoritarian, Cold-War-era monster that you've heard
about. With accessible explanations and illustrations, often
surprising graphs and stats, and some Drake memes, this book will
show you that we NEED to build a world that's safer, kinder,
cleaner, healthier, and more equal. And that this isn't a utopian
dream - it's within our grasp, if we collectively decide to call
out Capitalism for what it really is and wake up to a better
future. Fun, smart, and inspiring, It's Not You It's Capitalism is
the hottest new relationship in your life!
