Linda Tirado will join ani and Lyn to discuss her book, "Hand to Mouth: Living in Bootstrap America"- a first hand account of poverty in this country.
Combating societal beliefs around being poor can be as exhausting as living in poverty itself. Fed up with the revolving door of poverty, and the judgmental attitudes she encountered, Linda wrote an essay which went viral, being read by more than 6-million people. "Why I Make Terrible Decisions, or, Poverty Thoughts", was ran in the Huffington Post, The Nation, and many other publications. It introduced the world to Linda Tirado's sharp observations and biting humor.
We are thrilled to have Linda with us for what is sure to be an iconoclastic discussion of class prejudice.
