In this concise, lively look at the past, present, and future of voting, a journalist examines the long and continuing fight for voting equality, why so few Americans today vote, and innovative ways to educate and motivate them; included are checklists of what to do before election day to prepare to vote and encourage others.
Voting is a prized American right and a topic of debate from the earliest days of the country. Yet in the 2016 presidential election, about 40 percent of Americans--and half of the country's young adults--didn't vote. Why do so many Americans choose not to vote, and what can we do about it?
The problem, Erin Geiger Smith contends, is a lack of understanding about our electoral system and a need to make voting more accessible. Thank You for Voting is her eye-opening look at the voting process, starting with the Framers' perspective, through the Equal Protection amendment and the Voting Rights Act, to the present and simple actions individuals can take to increase civic participation in local, state, and national elections.
Geiger Smith expands our knowledge about our democracy--including women's long fight to win the vote, attempts to suppress newly enfranchised voters' impact, state prohibitions against felons voting, charges of voter fraud and voter suppression, and other vital issues. In a conversational tone, she explains topics that can confuse even the most informed voters: polling, news literacy, gerrymandering and the Electoral College. She also explores how age, race, and socioeconomic factors influence turnout.
Ultimately, Thank You for Voting offers hope. Geiger Smith challenges corporations to promote voting, and offers examples of how companies like Patagonia and Walmart have taken up the task in a non-partisan way. And she reveals how get-out-the-vote movements--such as television star Yara Shahidi's voting organization, Michelle Obama's When We All Vote campaign, and on-the-ground young activists--innovatively use technology and grassroots techniques to energize first-time voters.

Описание: Dan Geiger's memoir tells the kind of story most of us have lived in our hearts but seldom shared. In turn, he gives us permission to embrace our own shortcomings. In Bless Me, Father, for I Have Sinned, he paints a picture of a young man coming of age in remote Montana while buffeted by the Cold War, religion, family, the tumultuous 60s and the Vietnam War. He shows us how to laugh at our own susceptibilities, confess our outrageous behaviors, suffer the loss of dear friends and heal our hearts of all that life throws at us. Read and enjoy the adventures of youth, first loves, road trips, religious guilt and, hopefully, enlightenment learned the hard way.

Описание: Gallienus herrschte auf dem Gipfel der Krise des 3. Jahrhunderts . Eine Gesamtdarstellung aller Aspekte seiner Herrschaft stellt ein Desiderat der Forschung dar. Der Autor versucht dies unter Auswertung v. a. literarischer, numismatischer und epigraphischer Quellen. Zu umstrittenen chronologischen Fragen wird Stellung genommen. Unter Gallienus kam es zu wichtigen Weichenstellungen im milit risch-administrativen Bereich sowie auf dem Gebiet der Herrschaftsdarstellung. Dieser Kaiser lie viele originelle M nztypen pr gen und glich sich dabei verschiedenen Gottheiten an. Das Christentum erfuhr unter Gallienus erstmals offizielle Anerkennung. Somit hatte Gallienus an einem wichtigen Punkt der R mischen Geschichte eine Verbindungsfunktion inne.
