"Rural spaces," writes Elizabeth Catte, author of What You Are Getting Wrong About Appalachia, "are often thought of as places absent of things, from people of color to modern amenities to radical politics. The truth, as usual, is more complicated."
With activists, historians, and political scientists as guides, Left Elsewhere explores the radical politics of rural Americaits past, its priorities, and its moral commitmentsthat mainstream progressives overlook. This volume shows how these communities are fighting, and winning, some of the left's biggest battles. From novel health care initiatives in the face of the opioid crisis to living wages for teachers, these struggles do not fall neatly into the "puny language," as Rev. William Barber says, of Democrat or Republican. Instead they help us rethink the ruralurban opposition at the heart of U.S. politics. The future of the left, this collection argues, could be found elsewhere.
