** FREE E-BOOK: THE EDGERTON ESSAYS ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
[link removed], EPPC and American Compass published a collection of the Edgerton Essays, featuring working-class Americans sharing their perspectives on what they wish policymakers knew about the challenges facing their families and communities. The goal of these essays is to help policymakers and pundits understand what matters most to Americans who have no day-to-day connection to our political debates, focusing especially on those who have not earned a college degree.
Click here to learn more and to view a PDF version of the book ([link removed]) , which includes a concluding essay by EPPC Fellow Patrick T. Brown, who edited the collection, on how the essays capture the unfiltered thoughts of working-class Americans in all their complicated diversity.
