Program Description

Event Details

Please join us to discuss Nomadland: Surviving America in the 21st Century, by Jessica Bruder. ...Employers have discovered a new, low-cost labor pool, made up largely of transient older Americans. Finding that social security comes up short, often underwater on mortgages, these invisible casualties of the Great Recession have taken to the road by the tens of thousands in late-model RVs, travel trailers, and vans, forming a growing community of nomads. The inspiration for Chloé Zhao's celebrated film.
