Ari has literally written the book on voting rights. His GIVE US THE BALLOT was lauded for its telling of the modern struggle to expand voting access against the backlash to the civil rights movement. And his new book MINORITY RULE is the book democracy has been waiting for. Pre-order it now.

Ari gave us a look at some of the nation's worst laboratories of autocracy and contrasted them with the states where democracy is being reborn. And he told us how America's democracy problem is much bigger than just Donald Trump.
