Description

American politics feels brokenbut the solution isn't in Washington. It's right in our neighborhoods, schools, and city halls. It's All Local argues that the future of democracy depends on reengaging people where they live, work, and raise their families. Bryan Kennedy, Mayor of Glendale, Wisconsin and a national leader in the Democratic Party, draws on decades of experience as an educator, organizer, and elected official to show how local action builds power, restores trust, and strengthens communities. From winning smalltown elections to creating networks of engaged neighbors, Kennedy demonstrates how grassroots organizing can save democracy and reenergize the political process. Unlike books that focus only on national strategies, It's All Local offers a handson roadmap for activists, candidates, and everyday citizens who want to make a difference right now. It is both a wakeup call and a practical guide to rebuilding politics where it matters mostat home. For anyone who feels disillusioned with politics but still believes in the promise of democracy, this book is a blueprint for action and hope.
