About this item
Democracy in Retrograde

Democracy in Retrograde is a timely blend of self-help and political manifesto, offering a refreshing perspective on civic engagement during challenging political times. Authored by Emily Amick, former counsel to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and Sami Sage, New York Times bestselling author and cofounder of Betches Media, this book aims to empower individuals who feel overwhelmed by the state of American democracy.

In today's climate of isolation and constant digital immersion, many people feel disheartened and unsure about how to make a meaningful impact. Amick and Sage advocate for reframing civic engagement as a form of self-care—an affirmation of personal values and dignity. They provide a practical, choose-your-own-adventure approach to civic participation, emphasizing that every person has a unique role to play in their community and country.

Democracy in Retrograde goes beyond the basics of voting and explains how individuals can understand and navigate the political system to effect change. Through real-life stories, exercises, quizzes, and actionable steps, the book guides readers in defining their values, identifying their strengths, and finding meaningful ways to contribute—whether through small everyday actions or long-term commitments.

The authors stress the importance of building a sustainable civic life that aligns with personal authenticity, making engagement in democracy fulfilling and purposeful. By bridging the gap between the personal and political spheres, Democracy in Retrograde offers a new perspective on activism and encourages readers to take meaningful action, even in challenging times.

With a blend of optimism and practical advice, this book inspires hope and empowers individuals to reclaim agency over their civic responsibilities. As Joan Baez famously said, "Action is the antidote to despair," and Democracy in Retrograde provides a valuable roadmap for turning despair into purposeful action in the pursuit of a healthier democracy.
