52:20Now PlayingOne of the youngest state representatives in South Carolina history, Bakari Sellers brings readers this important book that illuminates the lives of America’s forgotten black working-class men and women. In his poetic personal history, Sellers humanizes the struggles that shape their lives: to gain access to healthcare as rural hospitals disappear; to make ends meet as the factories they have relied on shut down and move overseas; to hold on to precious traditions as their towns erode; to forge a path forward without succumbing to despair.
Sellers is joined by Kamala Harris, the second African American woman in history to be elected to the U.S. Senate, and the first African American and first woman to serve as Attorney General of the state of California. She is the author of The Truths We Hold.
