During Sarah Smarsh’s turbulent childhood in Kansas in the 1980s and 1990s, the forces of cyclical poverty and the country’s changing economic policies solidified her family’s place among the working poor. By telling the story of her life and the lives of the people she loves, Smarsh challenges us to look more closely at the class divide in our country and examine the myths about people thought to be less because they earn less.

Over the next fifty years, millions of Americans will be caught up in this churn of displacement, forced inland and northward in what will be the largest migration in our country’s history. The Great Displacement compassionately tells the stories of those who are already experiencing life on the move, while detailing just how radically climate change will transform our lives—erasing historic towns and villages, pushing people toward new areas, and reshaping the geography of the United States.

Told from the perspectives of Janet, Wendi, and Janet’s teenaged son, Tyson Romero, Seeking Shelter is a powerful and urgent exploration of the issues of homelessness, poverty, and education in America—a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding not just social inequality and economic disparity in our society, but also the power of a mother’s love and vision for her kids.
