David Sirota Coming to Miami

DAVID SIROTA COMING TO MIAMI!

Free Speech, Q&A and book signing

sponsored by Democracy for America Miami-Dade

Friday, July 25th, 8:00pm

Books & Books, 265 Aragon Avenue, Coral Gables, 33134

CNN anchor and illegal immigration critic Lou Dobbs supports doubling or tripling immigration levels, Montana senator Jon Tester calls primary challenges to incumbents "useful," and a global warming fight being waged by shareholders is making more gains than anyone in Washington. These are only a few of the revelations in David Sirota's eye-opening and important new book, THE UPRISING: An Unauthorized Tour of the Populist Revolt Scaring Wall Street and Washington (Crown/May 27, 2008).  David Sirota is a nationally syndicated columnist & New York Times bestselling author who The American Prospect says is the kind of reporter "you'd like to have on your side in a knife fight and wouldn't want to cross in a dark alley."

The Uprising is all new, firsthand investigative reporting from across the country, showing how populism has become a dominant political force in both national and local politics. Sirota takes us far from the media spotlight into the trenches where real change is happening-from the headquarters of the most powerful third party in America to the bowels of the U.S. Senate; from the auditorium of an ExxonMobil shareholder meeting to the quasi-military staging area of a vigilante force on the Mexican border. This uprising is now playing a pivotal role in the 2008 presidential election campaign, through the heated debate over immigration, the Obama and Clinton NAFTA dialogue, and the competition to prove who has better anti-Iraq war credibility. Sirota's journey aims to find out whether these battles will transform the populist uprising into a full-fledged movement.

Voting members can attend a private reception with David Sirota before the speech!
