Book Trailer: Hollowing Out the Middle by Maria Kefalas & Patrick Carr

Sociologist turned authors, Maria Kefalas and Patrick Carr, present the phenomenon of 'rural brain drain' in a language that we can actually understand.  They tell a story.  The story is not fiction.  It's the true depiction of a "hollowing out" of Middle America.

As you read this powerful book, an image of our heartland will come to life.  A massive youth exodus from rural communities to urban cities has created a web of issues that should concern us all.

Check this book out and discover ways that we can reverse the 'brain drain' and create a 'brain gain'!  Kefalas and Carr challenge us to take our heads out of the sand and address this serious trend with urgency.
