In his memoir, Not From Here, sociologist & author Allan G. Johnson takes us on an odyssey of introspection about our unrootedness and the symptoms of that dysfunction in our personal and national identities, things like the native genocide, slavery, but also the holes in our lives because we don't belong. Allan is the author of a blog, a number of sociology books, but also novels and this memoir, to lead us to engage more deeply with our world and selves.
Allan's writings include:
The Forest & the Trees: Sociology as Life, Practice, & Promise
Privilege, Power, & Difference
The Gender Knot: Unraveling our Patriarchal Legacy
Nothing Left to Lose (novel of Vietnam era)
The First Thing & the Last (novel of befriended abused woman)
