Ray's Reading List

Activism Inc
by Dana R. Fisher

This book explores the bizarre, dystopian world of paid political field work and explains how Democrats failed to organize two entire generations of Americans.

The number one problem facing Democrats today is trying to overcome 20+ years of alienating the working class through corrupt, for-profit, outsourcing companies. America's backslide into relying solely on charisma to get elected can be closely linked to aristrocratic Democrats outsourcing all of their voter contact activity to for-profit, out-of-state political field work companies.

For the many people who have gotten caught up in this corrupt system and were consistently treated like garbage by their fat-cat "Democrat" bosses, this book will help you regain your sanity.

Winners Take All: The Elite Charade of Changing the World

by Anand Giridharadas

All establishment Democrats need to read this book to begin to understand why they are consistently failing and are so publicly disliked.

With a special focus on the Clintons' foundation, this book explores the disingenuous tendency for Americans to get rich off of exploitative industries and unethical business practices, but then to inevitably age into pretending to try to help solve the very problems that they themselves have created and perpetuated.

Caste

by Isabel Wilkerson

This particular book is a brutal and incredibly important read that discusses America's history of racism, and the difficulty Americans face when trying to climb the social ladder.

Thinking of America as a caste system is, in my opinion, the best way to analyze our nation. This is especially true within our political systems, and the amount of hard truths detailed in this book make it incredibly compelling and uncomfortable. If Americans were taught this history, I think the country would be a much greater place.
