Episode 60: Terrence McCoy
from Gangrey Podcast Hosted by gangreypodcast
Terrence McCoy covers poverty, inequality and social justice in urban and rural America for the Washington Post. In February, he wrote the story “I don’t know how you got this way.” That piece is about how a young neo-Nazi has revealed himself to his family, and how his mother and grandmother are left wondering if they will ever get him back. He served in the United States Peace Corps in Cambodia, an experience that ultimately led to The Playground, a Kindle single available on Amazon. That book was named by the Washington Post as one of the best nonfiction books of 2013. His story “Today, Her Whole Life Is a Free Skate” was included in Best American Sports Writing 2017.
