WE’VE GOT TO TRY out today in paperback. For purchase at your local independent bookstore. How to defeat despair; find inspiration in those who struggle against the LONGEST ODDS, who never give up and never give in; who show us that not only CAN WE overcome the challenges before us, we’ve DONE IT BEFORE when no one would give us a chance! LAWRENCE NIXON and LONNIE SMITH break the “white primary”; LINDA COFFEE and SARAH WEDDINGTON win protection for reproductive rights in ROE v WADE; ALFREDO ZAMORA and LA RAZA UNIDA win political power and inspire BARBARA JORDAN’S rewrite of the VOTING RIGHTS ACT; and the PEOPLE OF EL PASO show how we can overcome the motherfuckers stoking white nationalist terrorism. “Uplifting. . . . O’Rourke gets an A-plus on both the moral frisson of the long fight and the rightness of the cause. . . . The happy warrior from Texas is inspiring.” – The Washington Post
