A Divided Nation
From the Series Living in America
The system of government in the United States has both united and divided Americans throughout the nation's nearly 250-year history. Fueled by activists, an abundance of fake news, polarizing media platforms, and an increase in hate crimes, political parties are deepening the divide between citizens. This nonfiction social studies title for young adults examines the origins and evolution of Democratic and Republican politics and each party's views on economic, social, racial, and gender issues, while offering solutions for healing the divide. Includes sidebars, a glossary, a timeline, and profiles of presidents Richard Nixon and Donald Trump.
