Tracie McMillan has covered America’s multiracial working class as a journalist with publications ranging from the New York Times to Mother Jones, National Geographic to the Village Voice. She is the award-winning author of the New York Times bestseller, The American Way of Eating, and The White Bonus: Five Families and the Cash Value of Racism in America. A onetime target of Rush Limbaugh, McMillan currently oversees coverage of worker organizing for Capital & Main.
A scholarship kid at New York University, Tracie grew up on a dirt road outside Flint, Michigan with a disabled mom and complicated dad. She’s supported herself since the age of 19, when she landed in Brooklyn’s rent-regulated housing. She now splits her time between Brooklyn, NY and Detroit, MI.
Tracie can be found on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, and Facebook.
