Hey Indivisibles,
Leah here!
Ezra (my husband-slash-Co-Executive Director) emailed you on Tuesday about
the project we’ve been working on this summer: we wrote a book! While we
were doing this, I learned something really important -- writing a book is
HARD. All those authors who say how much work goes into their writing?
Turns out they weren’t kidding.

Seriously, I am so excited that Ezra and I survived writing this book. But
now that the release is just a few months away (election day of this
year!), I’m even more excited to share it with all of you!

Democracy After Trump and to preorder your copy!
This book isn’t about me and Ezra (truly, it would be pretty boring if it
were). It’s about every Indivisible, and all the amazing things we’ve done
together in less than three years. Thinking about what Indivisible has
meant to us, and hearing about what it means to you, really hit home for
me.

Ezra and I never imagined, when we opened Google Docs after an upsetting
election, that a movement like this would come out of it. And we’re
inspired every day by everything Indivisibles do. That’s why 100% of the
proceeds of our book are going right back into Indivisible’s [ [link removed] ]Save
Democracy Fund so we can keep working to build a better democracy in 2021
and beyond.
Now, one thing I’ve learned during this process is just how important
preorders are. I thought the only reason to preorder a book was to make
sure you’d have it as soon as possible, and maybe to be able to show it
off to your friends (-cough- Harry Potter -cough-). But it turns out that
preorders are also a big part of how the New York Times determines its
bestseller list. Getting on there is one of the best ways to get our book
as much coverage and promotion as possible and get it into as many hands
as we can. And more coverage and promotion means we’re able to bring more
people into our movement.

booksellers listed along the top of the page.) Or call your local bookshop
and ask them to order you a copy!
This book is a reflection on what we’ve learned from the last 2+ years,
but it’s also a blueprint for where we want to go and the kind of
democracy we want to build. That’s why we want to make sure that it gets
out there, not just to active Indivisibles but to everyone who’s looking
for a way to fight for a better future. Preordering (and sharing with
friends and family) is the best way you can help us make that happen. If
you’ve already preordered, thank you! If you haven’t, what are you waiting
for?
In solidarity,
Leah
P.S. -- Another thing I’ve learned with this process is that the price of
books varies a lot. We got a lot of replies after Ezra’s email asking how
much the book costs and the true answer is: it depends! Generally the
hardcover is around $27 and the e-book is less, but it depends on which
bookseller you get it from. :)
