Be sure to order your copy of Song for a Hard-Hit People from CoffeeTree Books, a small Appalachian business. Now Beth is embarking on a book tour, with dates in-person and virtually. See the schedule here and say hello to her at a date!
Beth was in conversation with author, historian, and professor Jessie Wilkerson as she talked about how this book came to be and the message she hopes reaches Appalachia and beyond. You can grab Jessie’s own book right here!
“At a time when analysis is everywhere, and actual strategy is critically needed but hard to come by, Beth Howard’s book gives us a road map to building the cross race, class solidarity we need to battle the rising authoritarianism of our times.”
—Angela Y. Davis
May you be inspired to fight on and win the world we all deserve.
