[A] much needed booka compelling portrait of the Occupy movementthat capture[s] the spirit of the people involved, the crisis that gave Occupy birth, and the possibility of genuine change it represents.Eric Foner, author of The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American SlaveryThe Occupy Wall Street movement arose out of a widespread desire of ordinary Americans to change a political system in which the moneyed 1% of the nation controls the workings of the government. In Occupy Nation, social historian Todd Gitlina former leader of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) who stood at the forefront of the birth of the New Left and the student protests of the 1960s and 70soffers a unique overview of one of the most rapidly growing yet misunderstood social revolutions in modern history. Occupy Nation is a concise and incisive look at the Occupy movement at its pivotal moment, as it weighs its unexpected power and grapples with its future mission.
