Description

Emmy Award-winning journalist and Univision anchor Jorge Ramos looks back on groundbreaking interviews with rebels such as President Barack Obama, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Spike Lee, Barbara Walters, Fidel Castro, and more.

After 30 fascinating years uncovering the hard truth, journalist Jorge Ramos opens up for the first time about life-altering lessons by sharing captivating never-before-told stories. Widely recognized for his unapologetic, no-holds-barred approach to interviewing global leaders, business titans, democratic policy makers, and dictators, Ramos unearths their one common trait—they were all rebels at one point in their lives.

Rebels are different. They decided to challenge the prevailing status quo. Sometimes they rebelled to change a regime, other times to prevent abuse or discrimination, but in most cases they strived to correct an injustice.

Candid and at times controversial, Ramos draws invaluable awareness of issues that influence the mindset of the largest minority in the country—Latinos—and how they will undoubtedly shape not only Presidential elections but also the future of America.

  • Not so much a book, but more like a pat on the back

    This guy couldn't stop talking about himself throughout the whole book. It's almost like he enjoys listening to his own voice. Very little energy, not good for America. Go back to Univision. Make America great again George

    This guy is such a lying weasel. As a Hispanic, I am ashamed to call him one of my own. Please find the sewer you came out of.
  • Distorted facts, half truths, outright lies.

    He is not a journalist he's an activists. He talks negative about Americans for building a wall to separate the two countries and how Americans are racist for this but he doesn't talk about is how Mexico will throw you in prison and treated you terribly if you cross the border to Mexico illegally.

    All bad reviews for this fantastic book are from Trump supporters who most likely did not even read the first page of this book and who are probably in there mid 30s living in there moms basement. This book is completely worth the time and money to read.

    This man is not a journalist! He never lets anybody talk! He constantly interrupts and never lets anybody answer a question. All you get to hear is his opinion. A very rude man.
  • Pre-election propaganda

    Filled with radical leftist propaganda. That's not journalism.
