Description
Outclassed: How the Left Lost the Working Class and How to Win Them Back The relationship between college and non-college graduates of all races is driving politics to the far right in the US. A single change could protect democracy, spur progress on climate change, enact sane gun policies, and improve our response to the next pandemic: changing the class dynamics driving American politics. Joan Williams explains how to reverse the process by bridging the "diploma divide" while maintaining core progressive values. She offers insights into how working-class values reflect working-class lives, using illuminating stories from various fields. Williams demonstrates how the far right connects culturally with the working-class, manipulating racism and masculine anxieties to deflect attention from the economic conditions disadvantaging the working-class.
