The Politics of Prejudice: Sexism, Racism, and the 2024 Presidency takes a hard look at one of the most heated elections in American history. In a country split wide open by race, gender, and politics, the 2024 presidential race wasn't just about pickin' a leader-it was a fight for the soul of the nation.
This book dives deep into the ways systemic sexism and racism shaped every corner of the election. From the media's biased coverage to the back-and-forth of public debates, and from the tireless work of grassroots organizers to the hurdles faced by women and minority leaders, it uncovers how prejudice still runs deep in our democracy. But it also tells the stories of folks who stood tall, fought back, and refused to let their voices be silenced.
More than just a history of the election, The Politics of Prejudice asks the big questions:
- How do we break down systems that keep women and minorities on the sidelines?
- What does real leadership look like in a country so divided?
- And how can voters and leaders step up to their responsibilities to build a fairer, better future?
With a voice as warm as Southern sunshine and as sharp as a fresh-honed blade, this book is a call to action and a tribute to the people who keep pushin' forward, no matter how steep the climb. Whether you're a lifelong activist, a first-time voter, or just someone tryin' to make sense of it all, The Politics of Prejudice will leave you inspired and ready to dig in.
Because if the 2024 election showed us anything, it's this: progress ain't easy, but it's always worth fightin' for.
