Read this one since Obama recommended it- and it‘s thought provoking, fascinating and insightful. Data (without dryness) showing how living in an innovation or intelligence hub affects everyone- high and low skilled workers compares to cities that do not have a large high skilled workforce. Coming from a manufacturing WI town to living in the bursting Denver area, I could relate on many points.

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Smrloomis @Prairiegirl_reading I couldn‘t agree more. Literacy is important in a President. Who knew? 6y
Miss_Shush We don‘t deserve the Obamas. So classy. I mean we don‘t deserve Trump either but for different reasons 6y
Bookzombie Thank you for posting this! 6y
arubabookwoman Thank you for posting this reminder of what we lost in the last election. I did read #Futureface before I joined Litsy. I like Alex Wagner a lot, but I don‘t think her book would have been a pick from me. 6y
