How to Raise a Citizen shows how the future of our democracy relies on how we teach children about politics and government. No one likes how our politics feels or functions, but that can't change unless we change the ways we talk about and teach civics.

PRAISE FOR HOW TO RAISE A CITIZEN "With democratic engagement at a critical juncture, this book serves as a guide for parents striving to fill the gaps left by formal education systems in political and civic understanding. This book provides practical strategies to help parents pass on the foundational knowledge every young adult should have before stepping out into the world in order to be as powerful as possible." --DOLLY CHUGH, author of The Person You Mean to Be and A More Just Future, professor at the NYU Stern School of Business "We all have the power to build a better democracy--and it begins at home. Lindsey Cormack makes the never-more-essential task of civics education come alive in this passionate and nonpartisan how-to manual for inspiring our kids about the possibilities of democracy." --DAVID DALEY, bestselling author of Unrigged: How Americans Are Battling Back to Save Democracy "Cormack makes a compelling case that parents play a vital role in raising engaged citizens. This comprehensive guide is a must-read for parents who know our kids need to be more involved in our democracy, but don't know where to start." --JULIE LYTHCOTT-HAIMS, New York Times bestselling author of How to Raise an Adult
