| Summary, Etc. |
Democratic Party strategist Atima Omara believes that Black women between the ages of 18 and 45 are uniquely equipped to save American democracy. Omara draws on her political knowledge and expertise, as well as history, to examine how Black women have responded to failed strategic decisions by movement leaders and the modern Democratic Party in previous elections as a context for the present. She also provides actionable recommendations to organizers, donors, candidates, strategists, political party leaders, that everyday people can use in their communities to build an inclusive democracy that endures beyond one election cycle.
