I have spent most of my life completely in the dark when it comes to politics. At first, I really didn't care, and then I cared, but I didn't know where to start. That is why I have written this book: for those that are completely lost when it comes to the unpredictable political climate of 2020. I will be going in depth on various key issues and providing you all of the information you need in order to form your own political opinions. I have approached all of these 8 issues from both perspectives- the left and the right- so you can choose whichever side fits you best, or find a happy-medium where you lean a little in both directions, if you so wish. Good luck, and happy reading!

In 2024 in a small town in Kansas, a group of citizens bear the weight of the country's ignorance and greed. Forced to work on Independence Day, the group awaits the toll of the town bell. This bell marks the beginning of the end for the group. Each member has their reasons for embarking on this dangerous uprising but none feel it as deeply as Shanera Davis. Shanera, a nearly 30-year-old woman has watched over the past few years as her life crumbled beneath the blatant lies of her city government. Though nothing struck her as hard as the day her husband and son left for a bit of before-school celebrating, and never returned. Hardened by her grief and enraged by the injustice running rampant through the federal government, Shanera joins a group of twenty-five in her workplace. Little does the American population know that this militia has more up its sleeve than the overthrowing of one small town. As the bell tolls, the end begins. Will Shanera's last moments be spent watching the country crumble or revive the liberties and freedom it once pledged?
