DEMOCRACY REBELLION (2019) is the story of our movement - graphic personal portraits and compelling narratives of citizen heroes and reformers fighting for clean elections, voters rights, gerrymander reform and against dark money, Citizens United, and rigged elections. It also features WAmend's successful 2016 Initiative 735 campaign calling to overturn Citizens United.

Smith came away, impressed and amazed at the commitment, the tenacity and the idealism of political amateurs who learned that they go into the arena and beat the pros.
