Product Description
Giving Up Is Unforgivable is an instant New York Times bestseller and a timely political manifesto for our era—part history lesson, part urgent call to action.
Authored by constitutional law expert Joyce Vance, this book builds on her widely read Substack, Civil Discourse, where she has guided readers through the erosion of democratic norms, unprecedented legal challenges, and constitutional crises. Vance offers a practical blueprint to avoid burnout, strengthen democratic engagement, and act effectively in defense of the Republic.
Inside this compelling guide:
- A historical perspective on America’s current political and legal challenges
- Insights on constitutional law and the rule of law, explained for the everyday citizen
- Strategies for meaningful individual and collective action to protect democracy
- A hopeful vision for restoring civic norms while facing daunting contemporary threats
- A rallying cry for citizen engagement against the second Trump administration and initiatives like Project 2025
“Brilliant, galvanizing, and inspirational. A road map to help us find our way out of the darkness.” —Mary L. Trump
Giving Up Is Unforgivable empowers readers to take responsibility for the health of American democracy, offering guidance, encouragement, and a practical framework for civic action.
