Rose Aguilar reads from 'Red Highways'

San Francisco radio host Rose Aguilar reads from her new book "Red Highways: A Liberal's Journey into the Heartland." Rose took a six-month road trip through the "red states" to interview people about issues they care about.

A San Francisco radio host grown tired of media stereotypes, Rose Aguilar held an auction to raise money, bought a van, and set out on a six-month road trip through the red-state South and West to find out what voters and non-voters really care about. Equal parts travelogue, political reportage, and personal discovery, "Red Highways: A Liberal's Journey into the Heartland," challenges conventional wisdom and calls for a more thoughtful and productive dialogue between Red and Blue America.
