Focuses on the role that cities play as the home for progressivism. Neglect experienced by American cities, a phenomenon unfamiliar to Europeans; Observation that cities are the most productive and sustainable centers of our economy, vital centers of culture, and the most democratic and forward-looking entities in the government; Reasons why cities matter to progressives, including the fact that most of the nation's population and economy is centered in cities and their larger metropolitan and suburban areas, and the fact that all walks of life work and live together in the cities forming a natural source of progressive politics.
