Can't Not Look: Democracy In America
A unique manuscript book, Can't Not Look: Democracy in America is a collection of quotations from our presidents in three sections: "Civility & Comity", "Ethics & Equality", and "Dangers to Democracy". Each section contains at its center a fold-out quadruple truck of our then-leader's tweets on the same subject.
