We Were Eight Years in Power: An American Tragedy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 818min
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of We Were Eight Years in Power by Ta-Nehisi Coates, read by Beresford Bennett. From 2008-2016, the leader of the free world was a black man. Obama's presidency reshaped America and transformed the international conversation around politics, race and equality. But it attracted criticism and bred discontent as much as it inspired hope - so much so that the world now faces an uncertain future under a very different kind of US President. In this essential new book, peerless journalist and thinker Ta-Nehisi Coates takes stock of the Obama era, speaking authoritatively from political, ideological and cultural perspectives, and drawing a sophisticated and penetrating portrait of America today. ungekürzt.

We Were Eight Years in Power
Mit Barack Obama sollte die amerikanische Gesellschaft ihren jahrhundertealten Rassismus überwinden. Am Ende seiner Amtszeit zerschlugen sich die Reste dieser Hoffnung mit der Machtübernahme Donald Trumps, den Ta-Nehisi Coates als »Amerikas ersten weißen Präsidenten« bezeichnet: ein Mann, dessen politische Existenz in der Abgrenzung zu Obama besteht. Coates zeichnet ein bestechend kluges und leidenschaftliches Porträt der Obama-Ära und ihres Vermächtnisses - ein essentielles Werk zum Verständnis der Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und Zukunft der USA. »Lange fragte ich mich, wer die schmerzhafte Lücke schließen würde, die James Baldwin hinterlassen hat, als er starb. Jetzt weiß ich, dass es Ta-Nehisi Coates ist.« Toni Morrison- Shop: buecher

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race”, a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men - bodies exploited through slavery and segregation and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion.
