Everyday People provides a fresh and much needed sociological voice for understanding the societal context that gave rise to Trumpism and provides a clear analysis of our current cultural and political divides--Charles Crawford, Western Michigan University

Everyday People provides a fresh and much-needed sociological voice for understanding the societal context that gave rise to Trumpism and provides a clear analysis of our current cultural and political divides--Charles Crawford, Western Michigan University Everyday People provides a valuable supplement to political and psychological analyses of Trumpism by examining the social contexts that have allowed for its emergence, persistence, and effects on contemporary social life. True to the spirit of sociology, the book explores both social causes and social consequences of Trumpsters while asking how the movement is both similar and distinct within the context of U.S. social history.--Deborah Lowry, University of Montevallo
