A new progressive generation is on the rise in the United States,
reflected in the mushrooming rolls of the Democratic Socialists of
America (90,000 mostly twentysomething members), Marxist explainers
in Teen Vogue, and perhaps most famously of all, the youngest woman
ever elected to Congress, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. AOC and the
Rise of a New American Left is the first book to look closely at
this new politics. Propelled by interviews with AOC and the other
key figures and organizations who have shaken up American politics,
the book includes portraits of groups like Democratic Socialists of
America, the Sunrise Movement, and Justice Democrats, explaining
who they are, where they come from, and what they want.
Investigating the panopy of strategies employed by the new
movements and their relationship to politicians from Bernie Sanders
to Nancy Pelosi, the book describes how the generational focus on
insurgent electoral campaigns both aims to transform the Democratic
Party and threatens to be captured by it. Written with panache by a
member of this rising generation, this book immerses the reader in
a youth culture the likes of which haven't been seen since Sixties.
