Rocky River Chapter Book Discussion
About this event
Join the Rocky River Chapter of the League of Women Voters as we discuss Emily Amick and Sami Sage's book Democracy in Retrograde: How to Make Big and Small Changes in Our Country and in Our Lives.
Recently published in July 2024, authors Emily Amick, lawyer and former counsel to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, alongside New York Times bestselling author and Betches Media cofounder Sami Sage, explore how we can claim our place in our country and community. Including real stories of regular people who have made a difference along with helpful exercises and quizzes, Democracy in Retrograde is a choose-your-own-adventure map to civic engagement that will help us:
*Define our values and passions
*Understand how the system works, so it’s easier to know how to change it
*Match your personality, skills, resources, and interests, to meaningful actions within your community
*Implement changes (big and small) that matter
*Build a civic life that’s sustainable and authentic, whether you have only a few minutes to spare or are ready to make a lifetime commitment
