Rust Belt Union BluesTheir words
So, one is, um, very similar to the point I was just making, this book by the Scotch Pole and and Laney Newman called Rust Belt Union Blues, which talks about the hollowing out of associational life and in the rust belt and the ways that's affected um, you know, the move to the right in those areas.

We’re Still HereTheir words
Another one is this beautiful book that's a few years old now um called We're Still Here by Jennifer Silva, which looks at working-class life in Northeast Pennsylvania and just shows the utter disillusionment that working-class people have with all institutions and the the depth of the problem that we have in trying to rebuild trust in institutions.

Nothing matches.
What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
