"Once upon a time, any mention of California triggered unpleasant reminders of Ronald
Reagan and right-wing tax revolts, ballot propositions targeting undocumented immigrants,
and racist policing that sparked two of the nation's most devastating riots. In fact,
California confronted many of the challenges the rest of the country faces now--decades
before the rest of us. Today, California is leading the way on addressing climate
change, low-wage work, immigrant integration, overincarceration, and more. As white
residents became a minority and job loss drove economic uncertainty, California had
its own Trump moment twenty-five years ago but has become increasingly blue over each
of the last seven presidential elections. How did the Golden State manage to emerge
from its unsavory past to become a bellwether for the rest of the country?"--Jacket
