MISBEHAVING AT THE CROSSROADS Essays & Writings

by | Read by Karen Chilton

Contemporary Culture • 11.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

Delivering these essays with a sense of urgency and passion, narrator Karen Chilton is excellent in this powerful audiobook. It opens with the essay "That Day in January," about the January 6th insurrection, and what follows is a perfect mix of history lessons, personal stories, and social commentary. No topic is off-limits as author Jeffers shares vulnerable stories and insightful details of lives lived at the intersection of race, gender, and class. Chilton's delivery perfectly matches the tone of each essay--some reflective, some angry, some educational. Particularly compelling essays include: "History Is a Trigger Warning," "Misbehaving Women," and "On Being Fannie Lou Hamer Tired." Listeners will find that these essays are an invitation to engage in both self-reflection and action. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2025]
