Throughout 2024, our community slowly read through Alexis de Tocqueville’s classic, Democracy in America. This book has a surprising amount to teach us about our modern political climate, as well as how we got here. As we close out the year, Sarah and Beth close out our read along and reflect on what they learned about the present by looking to the past.
