Praise
“Dana Frank is an inspired storyteller whose work serves inspired purpose. Here, she surfaces stories of folks who mostly have been invisibilized as agents of collective struggle against oppression, precarity, insecurity, and exclusion. In four seemingly disparate accounts of grassroots collective action during the Great Depression, Frank reveals much about how politically nimble regular people have been, to both heroic and rancid ends. Always situating the history of specific collective action in the larger system of racism and patriarchy in a capitalist state, Frank leaves us with much to cheer and much to fear. Enjoy this beautifully crafted book, then get to work democratizing the economy and society.”
—Gwendolyn Mink, coauthor of Fierce and Fearless: Patsy Takemoto Mink, First Woman of Color in Congress
