Review of The Solution is Political Revolution
We were taught the idea of freedom, but are we really free in reality, or are we only slaves to the structures created around us? Jillion R. Rising in The Solution is Political Revolution goes for the fathom of America’s politics and economy and speaks of many ugly facts related to corruption, greed, and attitude towards society in general. The author raises wonderful questions about the state of things in the world: Is it possible for the People’s Will to reverse centuries of suppression and ensure democracy once more? Or are we set to become useful to a schemed-out order? This book provides hope for everyone who dreams of benefitting from a genuinely free society. Read ”The Solution is Political Revolution” by Jillion R. Rising to find out.
Jillion R. Rising combines autobiographical and revolutionary literature, focusing on key issues of threat to democracy, political corruption, and economic imbalance of the society. The exploitation of humanity at the grassroots level and dethroning profit-driven disregard for politics are two of the largest sentiments that arise from the book. For instance, the mortgage crisis of 2008 is highly focused on and is narrated by the author, vividly establishing the role Wall Street and the government played in the total evaporation of middle-class heritage. Likewise, Rising speaks on matters of immigration policy and its implementation: at one angle it is exploited for economic gain, and on the other angle the welfare of the populace is neglected. Rising's pieces on these topics are wide in range, as he situates each work in an appropriate historical framework and provides relevant solutions. The book, although nonfiction, has an urgency and a flow that encourages readers to become more engaged in the political arena. The negligible impact of social media in politics was not left out; the author discusses how it ultimately robs us of making open-minded decisions; instead, we are guided to reach a desired conclusion that fits certain political ideologies.
What I really appreciate about this book is Rising’s ability to engage and explain these concepts is impressive. Rising synthesizes major political, economic, and financial crises and presents them as uncomplicated insights. It is indeed remarkable how the author traces the steps back to past events and the relevance it holds in today’s world. One particularly poignant relative in the book is the assessment of the extension of economic disparity through the policies supervised by the Federal Reserve. Rising’s connection of the dots in terms of the root cause of the housing market collapse is aggravating but eye-opening.
The book is well organized and structured with useful information; each chapter develops sequentially from the previous one, and the readers are able to navigate through the complicated processes accompanying political and economic control easily. Moreover, recounting anecdotes such as Rising’s thoughts on economic policy’s effects on small-scale businesses certainly adds value to the content. To me, it would be the section where Rising deals with the reality faced with the cost of education and the debt that follows along. I also really love that he gave an in-depth explanation by using tables to give statistical explanations on the topics explained. An example is how he measured an accountant's earnings after 10 years of earning a degree against that of a union carpenter; the result is quite alarming, but it gave a clear explanation of what it really costs to obtain a college degree and the impact on such individuals 10 years down the line. The call to action in this book is done in a very swift and effective way, with no dramatization, and readers are given a practical pathway to unite and show resistance.
In all, ”The Solution is Political Revolution” deals with different political, social, economic, and financial concerns that really need to be discussed. The book touched on topics that might be hard to discuss and maintained a provocative edge from beginning till end, starting with its title.
I found nothing to dislike in this book. The degree of professionalism exhibited in the book is admirable, considering there are a few grammatical errors that are completely negligible and go to show that the book was well edited. I have a satisfying experience reading this book; hence, I give it a rating of 5 out of 5 stars, as the statistical explanation provided and the use of personal anecdote in explaining certain theories help to critically understand the topics discussed in this book.
I would recommend ”The Solution is Political Revolution” to anyone interested in exploring relations among politics, economy, activism, or social change. Be it an experienced activist or someone just interested in social systems, this book is highly interesting because it has the power to inspire people and equip them with the knowledge they require for making an impact.
