To enhance our collective and individual consciousness is to raise our political potential. Developing consciousness is the first step towards creating radical change for our intense, enduring, and interrelated social issues. But political consciousness is not given, it is claimed. So, I ask you to claim it. May this podcast, these books, these articles, these authors, these songs, and these resources merely serve as a step towards your proclamation.
It is my belief that society can transform itself if the people can transcend themselves.
Nothing changes, if we as a people do not first change

This is a phenomenal book that really emphasizes and illuminates the struggles of the middle class, the domination of the rich, and the myth of the American dream and upward mobility. The author, Daniel Markovits, puts together a brilliant book that deeply covers comparisons between the rich and the rest, related to education, healthcare, jobs, etc. He deeply covers our nations inequalities, contradictions of the system, and class warfare. If I could only recommend one book to people of the contemporary middle and working class, it would be this one.
