This holiday season, there's a lot to be thankful for as we work to protect our democracy and build a more progressive America.

We wanted to give PCCC members the opportunity to share some progressive holiday gifts! Especially books, podcasts, and news subscriptions. (Including a children's book written by PCCC co-founder Stephanie Taylor!)

Click on these links to order any of these books:

I Can Change Everything by PCCC co-founder Stephanie Taylor, illustrations by Laura Brenlla: Our very own Stephanie Taylor teaches kids the power of their imaginations -- from changing their socks and shoes to changing the world. This is a great gift for kids in your life!

Electable by Ali Vitali: After closely covering Elizabeth Warren's 2020 presidential campaign, NBC journalist Ali Vitali delves into the well-worn stereotypes to understand why America has never elected a woman president.

The Color of Money by Mehrsa Baradaran: Banking law expert Mehrsa Baradaran takes a hammer to the "self-help" myth that perpetuates the racial wealth gap.

The Lie That Binds by Ilyse Hogue: Former NARAL president Ilyse Hogue forcefully argues that the anti-abortion movement’s recent victories foreshadow a larger rollback of democratic rights and social progress.

We've Got People by Ryan Grim: Intercept editor Ryan Grim tells never-before-told stories as documents the influence of progressive populists from the late 1980s to the present, including shout outs to PCCC's behind-the-scenes influence! 

Lady Justice by Dahlia Lithwick: Lawyer and legal commentator Dahlia Lithwick chronicles the unsung bravery of women who used the rule of law to exact accountability during the Trump administration.

They Knew by Sarah Kendzior: Called "the Joan Didion of Missouri," Sarah Kendzior turns a critical eye toward the real-world conspiracies and conspiracy theories that threaten democracy.
