Democracy is not a spectator sport : the ultimate civic engagement handbook / Arthur Blaustein. by Blaustein, Arthur I., author. New York, NY : Skyhorse Publishing, [2020] Subjects Service learning.   Voluntarism -- United States -- Directories. ISBN:  9781510761988 (paperback) : 1510761985 (paperback) : Description:  xix, 278 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  With a new introduction addressing the era of Trump and the 2020 election, here is a comprehensive guide to civic participation and the best opportunities for volunteering. We are proud residents of the land of the free and the home of the brave, but how often do we actually get involved and do anything to make a difference? The lifeblood od democracy is civic engagement, and Democracy Is Not a Spectator Sport teaches readers how to get in the game and help! Volunteers are needed in record numbers. Millions of Americans -- middle class, working class, professionals, and business executives -- have experienced the loss of a job, a home, or a business, a small farm failure, a personal bankruptcy, or a loss of pension or retirement income. And millions more are only a layoff, illness, divorce, or accident away from falling into poverty. Blaustein focuses on two critical questions: "How did we get into this mess?" and "What can be done to turn things around?" His answer to these interconnected questions is volunteering, community service, civic engagement, and citizen participation.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 361.37 Bl Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 361.37 Blaustein Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 361.37 Bl Checked In Add Copy to MyList
