“Democracy Awakening,” by the author of the popular newsletter “Letters From an American,” assesses America at its current crossroads.
Richardson is a professor of 19th-century history at Boston College and the author of five highly regarded academic books, many of them about the evolution of Republican ideology. She is also the writer of Substack’s most successful — by far — newsletter: By one estimate, Richardson’s daily newsletter, “” rakes in $5 million per year. It could even be called cult-y, if cults had several million adherents who yearned for literate, principled and clearheaded analysis of the day’s news.
But Republican businessmen, who had caused the crash, despised the consensus. Richardson’s account of how right-wingers appropriated the word “socialism” from the unrelated international movement is astute. When invoked to malign all government investment, “socialism” served to recruit segregationist Democrats, who could be convinced that the word meant Black people would take their money, and Western Democrats, who resented government protections on land and water.
