Dog Whistle Politics

Here are some of the notes from the last two book group meetings discussing and learning from Dog Whistle Politics, by Ian Haney Lopez.  The group continues to explore how racially coded appeals have been used a cynical political strategy to undermine New Deal liberalism and dismantle the middle class over the last five decades. The next meeting is August 25th from 5-7pm at Temple University (Ritter Hall 477A).  See you there!
