These Complex People Shaped HowardS Sense Of Justice And Solidarity, And Taught Her About The Inextricable Bonds WorkingClass People Share, Despite Our Differences. But Her Childhood Also Left Her With Emotional Wounds That Threatened To Destroy The Life She Built For Herself. While Healing Her Wounds Is Deeply Personal, ThereS No Separating It From The People And Place That Made Her.Appalachia Is Often Framed As A Place To Escape From, Where People Are Hateful, Lazy, And Bring Tragedy Upon Themselves.
