{"product_id":"book-hue3","title":"American Patriots","description":"The history of America is a history of dissent. Protests against the British Parliament's taxation policies led to the American Revolution and the creation of the United States. In the twenty-first century, hundreds of thousands protested the war in Iraq, joined the 2011 Occupy movement, the 2017 Women's March, and the 2020 Black Lives Matter uprisings. There have been dissenting Americans for as long as there has been an America.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eAmerican Patriots\u003c\/i\u003e, historian Ralph Young chronicles the key role dissent has played in shaping the United States. Some of these protesters are celebrated heroes of American history, while others are ordinary people, frequently overlooked, whose stories show that change is often accomplished through grassroots activism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYet not all dissent is equal. In 2021, thousands of rioters stormed the US Capitol, and Americans on both sides of the aisle watched the destruction with horror. \u003ci\u003eAmerican Patriots\u003c\/i\u003e contrasts this attack with the history of American protest, and challenges us to explore our definition of dissent. What are the limits of dissent?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAmerican Patriots\u003c\/i\u003e is a necessary defense of our right to demand better for ourselves, our communities, and our nation.","brand":"Tantor","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49351194444080,"sku":"BDhue3","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49351194476848,"sku":"ZEhue3","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":49351194509616,"sku":"ZMhue3","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/hue3-Square-cover.jpg?v=1780391991","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-hue3","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
