EP 46: John David Luis | Chapter Author in Going Global
SHOW NOTES:
In this week’s episode, John David Lewis and I discuss his chapter, The Rat Race, in the 2019 book Going Global: The Life-Changing Experiences of 10 Courageous Black Men. When discussing the blueprint of living in a rat race society, John said, “I did all of this in the States, to come over here [UAE] to find the American dream.” Sixth in the EDpat Literature Review Series*, Going Global focuses the perspectives of 10 Black men reflecting on financial, environmental, and circumstantial problems in the US as motives for their decisions to move to the UAE.
*The EDpat Literature Review Series are episodes dedicated to highlighting literature that focuses on the Black EDpatriate and Black travel narratives.
