**Featuring special guests!** Come join a reading (7-8 pm) and book launch party to celebrate the publication of JP resident Chuck Collins’ new book, BORN ON THIRD BASE . Books provided by Papercuts JP. For more information, see http://www.chelseagreen.com/born-on-third-base
With the heart of an agitator and the soul of a storyteller, JP resident and inequality expert Chuck Collins upends our assumptions about America’s deep wealth divide—one that, for the first time in recent history, locks the nation’s youth into a future defined by their class and wealth at birth; limits our ability to address crises like climate change; and creates a world that no one, not even the rich, will ultimately want to live in. In Born on Third Base, Collins busts the myths that define our views of rich and poor, and offers bold new solutions for bridging the economic divide and re-engaging the wealthy in rebuilding communities for a resilient future.
