A Look at our Patchwork Nation

Hosted by

book.jpgIt's often said that America is a divided country, but it's not just a matter of rich and poor or of Red and Blue. A new book argues that the "real" America is a lot more complex, and it identifies no less that 12 types of communities that experience the world and the economy in different ways.  It's called Our Patchwork Nation: the Surprising Truth about the "Real" America. Its co-author, Dante Chinni, is director of the Patchwork Nation project, a collaboration of the Christian Science Monitor and PBS NewsHour, funded by the Knight Foundation.
