Keeping the March Alive How Grassroots Activism Survived Trump's America

"Penetrating cross-sectional analysis of how different grassroots networks formed and endured through the challenges of the Trump years. This is a book both for the moment and - given the enduring challenges to American democracy - for the future." (Sidney Tarrow, author of Movements and Parties: Critical Connections in American Political Development) "A terrific contribution to our understanding of the strategic choices that affect the ongoing mobilization of social movements. The book provides an impressive model of multi-method research and demonstrates the importance of tactics, coalition work, recruitment techniques, and online technologies in keeping the movement alive." (Suzanne Staggenborg, author of Grassroots Environmentalism) "With great nuance and an impressive trove of quantitative and qualitative data, Corrigall-Brown's deep dive into grassroots activism shows how local contexts fueled and shaped mobilization during an intense period of resistance. Not only an empirically rich and engaging read, Keeping the March Alive is also a welcome theoretical achievement in terms of movement context and survival, tactics, coalitions, and online mobilization."
