New book offers a personal and historical take on violence

Season 2025 Episode 266 | 8m 47s

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Trymaine Lee has spent his career chronicling the daily toll of violence and inequality. In his new book, he blends journalism with personal narrative to show how racism, trauma and violence cut lives short and carry on across generations. Geoff Bennett sat down with Lee to discuss "A Thousand Ways to Die: The True Cost of Violence on Black Life in America."
