Resistance Reading Room
The Resistance is now. Join us twice-monthly as we share and discuss relevant readings for our moment in US politics, and what we can do from Paris — with eyes on helping Democrats taking back House and Senate in 2026.
- Core text: On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century by Timothy Snyder. Find the book at Shakespeare & Company, Red Wheelbarrow, or an independent bookshop near you. Also available online at Archive.org
- Article: "10 ways to be prepared and grounded now that Trump has won" by Daniel Hunter. Read here at WagingNonviolence.org
- Fiction: "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. Read or listen here at The New Yorker
This is not homework, even if Resistance is work -- we will always feature a core text, an article, and a work of poetry or short fiction selected to guide our discussion but please read what you can, as you can. And if you can't get to it please join us anyway for a drink and good discussion. Hope to see you there!
This event is free and open to DA members. New members always welcome. To join Democrats Abroad go here: www.democratsabroad.org/join (Membership is free and open to US citizens 18 years of age or older and living abroad.)
