September’s Justice Book Group selection is Stolen Pride: Loss, Shame, and the Rise of the Right.

Stolen Pride: Loss, Shame, and the Rise of the Right is an excellent and compassionate book on why many blue collar (formerly Democrats) Americans are deeply drawn to the right wing. The author, sociologist Arlie Hochschild, digs deep into the perfect storm of economic and cultural woes that caused some to develop deep feelings of shame …that then made them vulnerable to the language of Trump.
