Great review of The Myth of Red Texas in my hometown paper @austinchronicle !
Seen here on my reclaimed table I picked up from the legendary Threadgills :)
Join us on Monday, June 1st from 5-7 pm at Batch for a conversation with David Griscom, author of the newly-published The Myth of Red Texas: Cowboys, Populism, and Class War in the Radical South and Alex Birnel, an organizer and founding member of MOVE Texas, as they discuss how we tell the story of Texas, who’s been left out of those narratives, and how telling a more expansive story of this state can help us forge a path to the future.
Drawing from Griscom’s new book, they will explore the often invisibilized tradition of cowboys, farmers and radicals raising hell against the moneyed interests and the right-wing in Texas, making for a lively and timely conversation as we consider progressive movement-building in the Lone Star State.

The majority of America is working class, yet our politics and economy don't serve us.
Crushing debt, stagnant wages, attacks on unions. The working class has never been more squeezed, all while the rich get richer.
It's time for a politics that works for us, not billionaires.
Something big is happening in Texas. Another standing room only event for The Myth of Red Texas!
Austin! Thank you for all of the hometown love, it was great talking The Myth of Red Texas, and staying around after to get to meet everyone who came out.
Special shoutout to @alienatedmajestybooks for hosting an incredible evening and to Justin Miller for hosting!!

So excited to take the MYTH OF RED TEXAS TOUR back home to Austin. Tonight at @alienatedmajestybooks we will be talking about our forgotten Texas history and how to reclaim it!
Most congressional campaigns are beholden to corporate money to finance and organize their race.
My campaign is different. We are a @demsocialists project accountable to our chapter membership and to the community of South Florida.
Worker democracy over billionaire oligarchy!
