Historia
Often blamed for the rising rates of obesity and diabetes among black Americans, fast food restaurants like McDonald's have long symbolized capitalism's villainous effects on our nation's most vulnerable communities. But how did fast food restaurants so thoroughly saturate black neighborhoods in the first place? In Franchise, acclaimed historian Marcia Chatelain uncovers a surprising history of cooperation among fast food companies, black capitalists, and civil rights leaders, who believed they found an economic answer to the problem of racial inequality.

learned a ton about fast food's relationship to the Black community in the US. So good. Helps give context to a lot of snippers of BIPOC history that I didn't know enough about.

Almost unlistenable

This is the weirdest set of inflections I have ever heard read aloud. I suspect that it is a text to voice function.
I am a hypnobirthing instructor myself and one of my students told me their provider had mentioned this.
I would love to see a paper version of the book, but the audio does not yield a practical guide alone. The odd speaking pattern of the narrator makes it very hard to understand directions -- such as Palmsfacing...... upwhile... before... Or "Breathinand OUTslow... Lee."
Or "Takes Deepbreath witheverycontract shon." It's just all weird phrasing.
I also HATE that they keep referring to the PAIN of childbirth. Many of us don't experience PAIN and this reinforces the idea that one ought to feel pain. I do NOT recommend this audio book. Again, I hope to find the paper copy or ebook to actually wash this audio out of my head and approach the content with a fresh perspective, but don't spend your credits on this.
I can't imagine endorsing this book for most clients. maybe if you are unable to construct birth as a happy or positive thing it something as it reinforces a TON of negative images such as you "are gonna be exhausted.". This approach is not consistent with any of the 5 or more other Hypnosis programs specifically for Birth I have ever studied, used as an instructor or as a pregnant person or casually read up on.

A really fun listen for the family
Revisado: 08-13-19
We enjoyed the accents and voice characterizations used by the British narrator, but the really fun part was the story, with just the right amount of plot twists and peril to keep tween, teen and parent engaged and looking forward to the next long drive to hear more.
