Eyes to the wind: a memoir of love and death, hope and resistance / Ady Barkan, read by Bradley Whitford, 281 pages
I picked this up not realizing that Ady Barkan is a well known political activist and social justice warrior. Diagnosed with ALS at age 32, this is also a memoir of dealing with the physical issues related to the disease that is incurable. Not wanting to give up on the work he was doing, he expanded his scope to include healthcare initiatives and the importance of continuing many of the provisions of Obamacare. I enjoyed hearing about Fed-up, a campaign to reform the Federal Reserve. Bradley Whitford narrates and does a good job. Recommended to anyone interested in political resistance or even just finding meaning in life.
