This book isn't just a feminist indictment of Hillary Clinton .
It's an indictment of a left that has failed to reckon with
capitalism's dark side.
*Washington Post*
This collection of essays deconstructs Hillary's problematic
history as a candidate who professes to be a feminist but whose
policies have been pretty straight garbage for the nation's
vulnerable since the start.
*Medium*
A feminist critique of a feminist candidate . devastating.
*Kirkus Reviews*
Intensely engrossing for Hillary Clinton's left-wing opponents-and
for left-leaning readers still on the fence . The powerfully
critical essays reject the 'ruling class feminism' of Clinton in
favor of a 'left feminism rooted in an understanding of women's
material conditions' . A damning portrait of both Clinton and
American politics.
*Publishers Weekly*
A refreshing read with a defiant tone [that] pulls no punches when
it comes to the Clinton record, from the time she entered the
corporate and political world up until her work as Obama's
secretary of state . This book will give you the confidence to say:
not in our name . The authors who contributed to False Choices
provide us plenty of good company in the battles ahead.
*Socialist Worker*
False Choices: The Faux Feminism of Hillary Rodham Clinton is a
good reminder of all of the ways, through a long political career,
Clinton has valued power over justice.As False Choices makes clear,
this election is not a progressive advancement, it is simply more
of the same.
*The Smart Set*
