WHY WE RESIST paints a portrait of an American monster and lays out, fact by methodical fact, the case against his presidency. In tones shaken but steady, sober yet ultimately hopeful, here reads a frank manifesto, a journal in search of sanity, a small time capsule from this backward chapter in the history of our republic, and above all a call for reckoning. May it comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable.
