    About this audiobook

    What does it mean to be an engaged American in today's divided political landscape, and how do we restore hope in our country? In a collection of "civic sermons" delivered at gatherings around the nation, popular advocate for active citizenship Eric Liu takes on these thorny questions and provides inspiration and solace in a time of anger, fear, and dismay over the state of the Union.

    Here are 19 stirring explorations of current and timeless topics about democracy, liberty, equal justice, and powerful citizenship. This audiobook will energize you to get involved, in ways both large and small, to help rebuild a country that you're proud to call home. Become America will challenge you to rehumanize our politics and rekindle a spirit of love in civic life.

He has technical degrees from MIT and Stanford and has worked in high tech companies in Silicon Valley for over eight years. He exercises his creativity through song, dance, and writing and believes that we make the world stronger by bringing disparate things together: art and industry, science and tradition, corporations and communities, and government and technology. He believes a story can change the world. What we read, watch, and discuss can have a real impact on our lives. His mission is to bring environmental issues and technology's role in solving them to the forefront through the power of fiction.
