laelski 's review for:
Strangers in Their Own Land: Anger and Mourning on the American Right
by Arlie Russell Hochschild
I recommend this for anyone, but especially for left-leaning folks who are truly seeking an answer to the question "how in the hell did Trump get elected!" It's been asked it jest by people like me to help convey our frustration, but this book seeks to honestly answer the question. To understand, we need to understand the social, environmental, financial, and regional context that gave rise to the Tea Party movement.
The book is not seeking to polarize; it seeks to help find common ground. Only by climbing over the author's so-called "empathy wall" can we ever hope to understand each other and be able to work together.
(plus I love approaching things from a sociological perspective.)
