What J. D. Vance did for Appalachia with Hillbilly Elegy, CNN analyst and one of the youngest state representatives in South Carolina history Bakari Sellers does for the rural South, in this important book that illuminates the lives of America’s forgotten Black working-class men and women. Part memoir, part historical and cultural analysis, My Vanishing Country is an eye-opening journey through the South's past, present, and future.

From the heart
Revisado: 07-09-20
Raw and from the heart. Thank you for your honesty, I’m a 70 yo white woman that “thought” I understood the divides between us. Words allude me ... do yourself a favor and give this a listen - no matter how you feel.

In 2010, the words “earthquake swarm” entered the lexicon in Oklahoma. That same year, a trove of Michael Jackson memorabilia—including his iconic crystal-encrusted white glove—was sold at auction for over $1 million to a guy who was, officially, just the lowly forestry minister of the tiny nation of Equatorial Guinea. And in 2014, Ukrainian revolutionaries raided the palace of their ousted president and found a zoo of peacocks, gilded toilets, and a floating restaurant modeled after a Spanish galleon.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 254
From the author of The Ghost Ships of Archangel, one of the last unheralded heroic stories of World War II: The U-boat assault off the American coast against the men of the US Merchant Marine who were supplying the European war, and one community’s monumental contribution to that effort. Mathews County, Virginia, is a remote outpost on the Chesapeake Bay with little to offer except unspoiled scenery - but it sent an unusually large concentration of sea captains to fight in World War II.

This WW11 history should not be missed!
Revisado: 05-23-16
Anyone who loves American history needs to add the Merchant Marines of WW11 to their knowledge. We owe them so much more than they ever received. Don't miss this 5 Star book.
Afterword: while I was listening to this book my favorite uncle passed away at the age of 93, only after his passing did I find out he served aboard the SS Williams Victory. I'm a daughter of a USNA 1943 grad. And most of the stories were of the Navy. I wish I had known to ask:(

In the spirit of Steve Jobs and Moneyball, Elon Musk is both an illuminating and authorized look at the extraordinary life of one of Silicon Valley's most exciting, unpredictable, and ambitious entrepreneurs - a real-life Tony Stark - and a fascinating exploration of the renewal of American invention and its new makers.

This guy and his amazing team is who Mother Earth has been waiting for. I hope his visions along with some of the other environmental game changers catch on and are heard by everyone!
I'm 65 now and now only did I enjoy this book but felt like the words were sometimes the exact ones I used to tell anyone about our environment.
