Description
Red State Blues: Stories from Midwestern Life on the Left The 2016 US presidential election saw traditionally Democratic states in the Midwest shift towards Republican candidate Donald Trump. This phenomenon has been extensively explored, but what about those who remain committed to progressive values? Red State Blues offers a nuanced look at the lived experience of ordinary Democrats and activists pushing back against simplistic narratives of the region. Edited by Martha Bayne, this collection brings together essays from a range of contributors, including Sarah Kendzior, Kenyon College president Sean Decatur, and Pittsburgh city councilman Dan Gilman. The result is a rich exploration of the complexities of Midwestern politics, one that refuses to be reduced to stereotypes. A valuable insight into the region's history and culture, Red State Blues provides a nuanced understanding of the Midwest's role in American politics.
