ARLIE HOCHSCHILD is the author of best-seller, STRANGERS IN THEIR OWN LAND: Anger & Mourning on the American Right. Five years talking with folks in Southern Louisiana revealed a “deep story” that holds their political contradictions together – they’re waiting in line for the American Dream and Democrats help others – Blacks, Latinos, LGBTQ – cut in front of them. In her new book, STOLEN PRIDE: Loss, Shame, and the Rise of the Right, she takes readers to Pike County, Kentucky. In the nation’s whitest and second poorest congressional district , she looks again at the intersection of jobs, culture, emotion, and politics.
