[Coronavirus Criminals and Pandemic Profiteers] will leave readers with a renewed hunger for justice regarding the pandemic. -Kirkus Reviews ( Starred Review ) As someone who lost my own father to this deadly pandemic, I can't tell you how refreshing and necessary John's book is. I hope this book spurs us to at long last hold accountable those who failed-and continue to fail-to protect lives. -US Representative Ilhan Omar John Nichols has done it again. Many history books will be written about Covid-19, but those interested in learning about the key players responsible for exacerbating the pandemic must start here. This is a brilliant roadmap for ensuring those responsible are held accountable. -US Representative Ro Khanna Nichols names and shames the politicians and business leaders who let countless Americans perish from Covid-19. With vivid accounts, Nichols shows us exactly why 'we have a duty, to the dead, to the ailing, to the damaged and the endangered' to hold these villains accountable. - Jennifer Taub, author of Big Dirty Money: Making White Collar Criminals Pay This is such a necessary exercise in truth-telling. In the name of all those who did not have to die, may we resist the lies that lead to unnecessary death. - William J.

Nichols [tells us] that one of the reasons Wallace was not renominated in 1944 was because of his opposition to racism. The segregationists didn't want him around. -- Senator Bernie Sanders On The Fight for the Soul of the Democratic Party: More than a history book-this is an examination of what progressives must do to retake our democracy. Nichols points the way toward how we can build a party based on peace, liberty, and justice for all. -- Representative Ilhan Omar On The 'S' Word: A chilling reminder of how much rich American history has been erased by shallow messaging. A crucial book. -- Naomi Klein On The 'S' Word: The Tom Paine of our time. -- Bill Moyers Sure to alarm as much as it angers and informs ... [Coronavirus Criminals and Pandemic Profiteers] will leave readers with a renewed hunger for justice regarding the pandemic. * Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review) * Author InformationJohn Nichols is the Washington correspondent for The Nation magazine, a contributing writer for the Progressive and In These Times, and the associate editor of Madison, Wisconsin’s Capital Times.
