Overview

In Our Revolution: A Future to Believe In, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders outlines his career and political ideals. The book includes an autobiographical sketch of his early life, a discussion of his 2016 campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, and a summary of his views on important national issues. Sanders believes that the wealthy control government institutions and the national media to their own advantage, and that a popular electoral revolution is needed to rein in corruption and give working people jobs, opportunities, and a decent standard of living including equitable access to quality health care and education.

Sanders was born in Brooklyn, New York, to working-class parents. His older brother Larry taught him a love of reading. Sanders was the first one in his family to attend an elite university when he went to the University of Chicago. There he read progressive publications, educated himself about political concerns, and participated in civil rights activism against racism.

After graduating from college, Sanders moved to Vermont. He worked as a journalist and then made and sold educational videos. He soon became involved in independent politics. He ran several races as a candidate for the Liberty Union Party and lost them all badly. In 1980, he ran for mayor of Burlington as an independent and scored an upset victory. He served for eight years despite political resistance from both Democrats and Republicans. He won a race for the House of Representatives
