What the Hell Do You Have to Lose?

Trump's War on Civil Rights

De: Juan Williams

Narrado por: Dale E. Turner

The best-selling author, political analyst, and civil rights expert delivers a forceful critique of the Trump administration's ignorant and unprecedented rollback of the civil rights movement.

In this powerful and timely book, civil rights historian and political analyst Juan Williams denounces Donald Trump for intentionally twisting history to fuel racial tensions for his political advantage. In Williams's lifetime, crusaders for civil rights have braved hatred, violence, and imprisonment, and in so doing made life immeasurably better for African Americans and other marginalized groups. Remarkably, all this progress suddenly seems to have been forgotten - or worse, undone. The stirring history of hard-fought and heroic battles for voting rights, integrated schools, and more is under direct threat from an administration dedicated to restricting these basic freedoms.

Williams pulls the fire alarm on the Trump administration's policies, which pose a threat to civil rights without precedent in modern America. What the Hell Do You Have to Lose? makes a searing case for the enduring value of our historic accomplishments and what happens if they are lost.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Juan Williams has written an important and timely book on the future of civil rights and equal justice under the law. Williams, an eyewitness to history, warns us to 'stay woke' in the era of Trump. Otherwise, we might find the moral arc of our history suddenly bending backwards." (Donna Brazile, former interim chair of the Democratic National Committee)

"A vivid and beguiling investigation on how Donald Trump is hell-bent on dismantling a large slice of America's Civil Rights heritage. This is a wake-up call for those who want to keep Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream alive. Williams, who works at Fox News, is taking a brave stance in these pages. Highly recommended!" (Douglas Brinkley, professor of history at Rice University and author of Rosa Parks)

"A cogent response from a veteran journalist... His skillful succinctness makes his anti-Trump commentaries often devastating... [A] relevant and well-grounded book." (Kirkus Reviews)

Great read

Informative

I truly enjoyed this book it gave me a great deal of insight into Trump's history and also our civil rights movement and some of the important people who played a role in civil rights

Great Read/Listen

Juan’s insightful and direct about his thoughts and research about “What…Lose”. Although I knew it was a BS question from the start, understanding DTs history with people of color gives new meaning to it.

Don't waste your time

Juan provides a history lesson that can easily be found at your local library and will cost you less time and money.

The author asserts that the majority of African American strides with equality will continue to go backwards under the Trump administration as he believes he is racist. Juan displays many facts and quotes that he believes solidfys his claims and opinions.

This book is a failed attempt at peddling fear through a theme that brings us farther apart than together.

I respect Mr. Williams, but not his assertions.
