Learning from Nebraska: Ross Benes

Learning from Nebraska: Ross Benes

In his recent book, Rural Rebellion, author and journalist Ross Benes takes a multi-decade look at how Nebraska went from being a progressive state to a conservative stronghold.

Benes explores how Nebraska defies red-state stereotypes while offering readers insights into how a frontier state with a tradition of nonpartisanship succumbed to the hardened right. Extensive interviews with US senators, representatives, governors, state lawmakers, and other power brokers illustrate how local disputes over health-care coverage and education funding became microcosms for our current national crisis.

Ross Benes is the award-winning author of three books. He has written for Entertainment Weekly, Esquire, Lincoln Journal Star, Nation, Omaha World-Herald, Rolling Stone, Wall Street Journal, and more. A native of Brainard, Nebraska, he now cheers on the Huskers from New York.
