Clear and elegant; a page-turner. Young convincingly demonstrates that the history of the United States is inextricably linked to dissent and shows how 'protest is one of the consummate expressions of Americanness.' * Publishers Weekly (starred), praise for DISSENT * French historian Alexis de Tocqueville warned about 'the tyranny of the majority' in American democracy. This work deals with that important topic from colonial times to the present. Young brings experience and knowledge to this subject. This history will satisfy fans of Howard Zinn, Pete Seeger, and Allen Ginsberg. * Library Journal, praise for DISSENT * A broad-ranging, evenhanded view of a tradition honed into an art form in America. Young has a knack for finding obscure but thoroughly revealing moments of history to illustrate his points; learning about Fries' Rebellion and the Quasi-War with France is worth the price of admission alone, though his narrative offers much more besides. Refreshingly democratic, solid supplemental reading to the likes of Terkel and Alinsky, insistent on upholding the rights of political minorities even when they're wrong. * Kirkus Reviews, praise for DISSENT *, French historian Alexis de Tocqueville warned about 'the tyranny of the majority' in American democracy. This work deals with that important topic from colonial times to the present. Young brings experience and knowledge to this subject. This history will satisfy fans of Howard Zinn, Pete Seeger, and Allen Ginsberg., In this moment when our most basic civil liberties and civil rights are under such serious assault, and when the forces of repression and hate are clearly on the rise, American Patriots is a most essential read. It is a reminder that the American determination to resist those ugly forces--and our truly patriotic determination to demand greater justice, to insist on true equality, and to ensure the sanctity of opportunity and access for all--is not simply a historical memory. It is very much who we also are--a vibrant and determined part of our present that will save our future., Young reminds of how a perpetual dissent--against injustice, violence, and war--gives the word 'American' its higher meaning, distinct from nationalism. It is a passionate call to Americans to open their minds in the era of polarization and echo chambers., Young reminds us of how a perpetual dissent--against injustice, violence, and war--gives the word 'American' its higher meaning, distinct from nationalism. It is a passionate call to Americans to open their minds in the era of polarization and echo chambers., Clear and elegant; a page-turner. Young convincingly demonstrates that the history of the United States is inextricably linked to dissent and shows how 'protest is one of the consummate expressions of Americanness.', The Temple University historian Ralph Young's Dissent , a beautifully written, always-interesting, and analytically smart synthesis of American history, contends that dissent has shaped our world from the Puritans to the Barack Obama presidency. Here is wishing Young's big book a shelf life as long as the works of Hofstadter, Williams, and Zinn., As we navigate a media world that is designed to enrage and often deceive, there has never been a better moment to revisit the role that dissent plays in refreshing our political vision. Dissent is, as Young ably shows, the opposite of polarization because it demands that we not only confront ideas that make us uncomfortable or even angry but also discuss them so that we can overcome new national challenges together as neighbors and patriots., A broad-ranging, evenhanded view of a tradition honed into an art form in America. Young has a knack for finding obscure but thoroughly revealing moments of history to illustrate his points; learning about Fries' Rebellion and the Quasi-War with France is worth the price of admission alone, though his narrative offers much more besides. Refreshingly democratic, solid supplemental reading to the likes of Terkel and Alinsky, insistent on upholding the rights of political minorities even when they're wrong., " American Patriots takes us on a fast-paced, thoroughly engaging, and thought-provoking journey from Mother Jones's labor advocacy, through the rich history of dissent in 20th-century America, to the explosive backdrop of both grass roots dissent movements and manufactured or "synthetic" dissent in the American present. This is a must-read for everyone who cares about the relationship between principled dissent and love of nation.", Ralph Young is no stranger when it comes to discussing and analyzing the importance of dissent in America's past and present. In this latest effort, he expands our appreciation and understanding of the centrality of vigorous debate and passive and organized resistance to our identity as patriotic citizens. Both an excellent primer for students and a strong refresher for interested readers, American Patriots is a timely and much-needed reminder of our obligations to resist political and social injustices as they continue to appear. Well done, Ralph!
