Sarah Smarsh on Covering the Rural Working-Class (Get Po-LIT-ical)

[REBROADCAST FROM September 9, 2024] Author and journalist Sarah Smarsh has spent the last decade dedicating herself to correcting stereotypes, misinformation, and prejudice around the lives and beliefs of rural, working-class White Americans. She speaks from experience, as the daughter of two poor Kansas residents. Now, she's collected that decade of writing in her new book, Bone of the Bone: Essays on America by a Daughter of the Working Class. Smarsh joins us to discuss as part of our election series, Get Po-LIT-ical.
