by Connor O'Hanlon (Author)
As a young leader in one of the most vital swing counties in Pennsylvania, Connor O'Hanlon is constantly asked this one question... "Where are the young people?"
The short answer: They have been told to "wait their turn."
However, Connor never waited for his turn. He makes things happen even when others don't see his vision or don't believe he can pull it off. And he knows he is not alone in dealing with the adversity of being a young person looking to claim their spot when it comes to politics.
For far too long, others have treated millennials and Generation Z as an afterthought in American politics. They only considered their votes, not their voices. This book is here to end that by empowering and equipping young people with the tools to gain power within the political system and make material change a reality in communities across America.
In this book, you'll learn:
- Historical and political context: From the New Deal to today-Political and historical context that shade our current political environment.From "pie-in-the-sky" to reality-Pragmatic examples of leaders and rhetorical approaches.Navigating a hostile political environment-How Connor went from student to chairman and how you can, too.
Building a Greater Society: A Guide to Political Revolution for Millennials and Generation Z provides the tracks for young people to gain historical insight through progressive patriotism and develop pragmatism that is necessary to build a movement that can change the trajectory of America.
