 Lopez shows why the path to a truly just society lies in a multi-racial 
 coalition of poor, working and middle-class Americans...Powerful, urgent, 
 and timely." \n-Robert B. Reich\n      \n"In Dog Whistle Politics" Lopez 
 explained how coded racism in politics tears us apart. He shows us how we 
 can come together again in his new book, Merge Left."\n-Van Jones\n\nIan 
 Haney Lopez teaches in the areas of race and constitutional law. One of the 
 nation's leading thinkers on how racism has evolved since the civil rights 
 era, his current research emphasizes the connection between racial 
 divisions in society and growing wealth inequality in the United States. In 
 Dog Whistle Politics: How Coded Racial Appeals Have Reinvented Racism and 
 Wrecked the Middle Class (2014), Haney Lopez detailed the fifty-year 
 history of how politicians exploit racial pandering to fracture social 
 solidarity and ultimately to convince many voters to support rule by the 
 rich. His most recent book, Merge Left: Fusing Race and Class, Winning 
 Elections, and Saving America (2019), explains how the political 
 manipulation of coded racism has evolved in the Trump era, while also 
 offering an evidence-based approach to neutralizing political racism and 
 building cross-racial solidarity.\n\nSaru Jayaraman is the President of One 
 Fair Wage, Co-Founder of the Restaurant Opportunities Centers United (ROC 
 United), and Director of the Food Labor Research Center at University of 
 California, Berkeley.\n\n$12 advance, $15 door.\n
