Stolen Pride
National Book Award Finalist and Bestselling Author
Arlie Hochschild
in conversation with friend and colleague Dr. Troy Duster,
Professor Emeritus at UC Berkeley and past President
of the American Sociological Association
In her latest book, Stolen Pride, Arlie Russell Hochschild offers an original contribution to the national conversation on bridging what divides us and healing our nation.
For all the efforts to understand the state of American politics and the blue/red divide, Hochschild believes that we’ve ignored what economic and cultural loss can do to an overlooked and powerful human feeling: pride – especially, among men.
Hochschild’s research drew her to Pike County in the heart of Appalachia, the whitest and second poorest Congressional District in the nation. Its residents faced a perfect storm: jobs in the coal industry left, crushing poverty persisted, and a deadly drug crisis struck the region harder than anywhere else in the country.
This book makes an important contribution to the understanding of our times – a glimmer of hope for our fragile democracy.
