      abstract = {"Where is America's Rust Belt? It's not quite a geographic  region but a linguistic one, first introduced as a concept  in 1984 by Walter Mondale. In the modern vernacular, it's  closely associated with the "Post-Industrial Midwest," and  includes Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, as well as parts  of Illinois, Wisconsin, and New York. The region reflects  the country's manufacturing center, which, over the past  forty years, has been in decline. In the 2016 election, the  Rust Belt's economic woes became a political talking point,  and helped pave the way for a Donald Trump victory. But the  region is neither monolithic nor easily understood. The  truth is much more nuanced. Voices From the Rust Belt pulls  together a distinct variety of voices from people who call  the region home. Voices that emerge from familiar Rust Belt  cities-- Detroit, Cleveland, Flint, and Buffalo, among  others -- and observe, with grace and sensitivity, the  changing economic and cultural realities for generations of  Americans. The anthology is a collection of the best  non-fiction essays published in Belt Magazine, a  critically-acclaimed regional magazine, and has been  artfully put together by publisher and founder Anne Trubek"  --},
