In an obscure corner of the infinite-multiverse, on an alternate-Earth, in the mid-21st century, the right to vote of millions of Working Class Americans had recently been totally destroyed, freeing the Ruling Class - with the power their money gave them - to dictate the shape of national government. The Rich were afraid that without the vote the worst of the Rabble would revolt, destroying Elitist civilization.

Produktbeschreibung
In an obscure corner of the infinite-multiverse, on an alternate-Earth, in the mid-21st century, the right to vote of millions of Working Class Americans had recently been totally destroyed, freeing the Ruling Class - with the power their money gave them - to dictate the shape of national government. The Rich were afraid that without the vote the worst of the Rabble would revolt, destroying Elitist civilization. So the Rulers prepared to have protestors shot in the streets; rebellious slaves do not deserve to live. Preparing for an inevitable Anti-Capitalist Revolution, learning to Share, Working Class people organize themselves to grow free-food for the Poor and the Homeless; they create Tent Neighborhoods in public parks for those running from sea-coasts devastated by melting glaciers due to Climate Change; and establish the Anarkhist Army of the Appendix to aid ordinary people in the coming Revolution, as the Rich use violence to keep their money and their social power. Soon after the COVID pandemic has worn itself out, a special, secret committee in the US Senate - in order to get rid of worthless, excess, unemployed Workers - released mutated, antiviral-resistant Smallpox on a nation which was completely unvaccinated for that devastating disease, since vaccinations for Smallpox ended in 1972 after the disease was eradicated in the USA. Totally unsupported by a government dedicated only to protecting and enabling the Rich Elites, ordinary working-Americans - desperately seeking to control their own lives, their ailing planet, and their civilization - struggle together onward toward a effective anti-Capitalist Revolution. How can people prepare for life without Capitalism; how do they struggle for a better future living in Voluntary Socialism? Can the Revolutionaries of North America survive the violent backlash from those Elites who most Profit from Capitalism?

Autorenporträt
Barbara G Louise was born Barbara Louise Whittum - the first child of white, 'middle-class' parents - in November 1943 in Niagara Falls, New York. She has one brother, a retired Marine and a newspaper publisher. After graduating from Riverside High School in Painesville Township, Ohio in 1961, she attended Kent State University, graduating in 1970 with two bachelor degrees, one in Biology, one in general Science. She became a Jew-by-Choice at the age of thirty. Barbara spent her working career as a Registered Medical Technologist: MT (ASCP), beginning in the Pathology Service Laboratory of University Hospitals of Cleveland and then in the Hematology Laboratory of Mt Sinai Medical Center in New York City, before returning to Cleveland at the age of forty-seven. When she retired after a mild stroke in 2000, Barbara began to write the Science Fiction novels she had always wanted to read, about societies without Racism, Homophobia, or Sexism; but being human societies, they have other problems. When the book-in-hand was published, Barbara was 79, living very happily in Cleveland Heights, Ohio with her long-time same-gender Partner and the latest in a long line of well-loved rescue-cats.
