Latin America is a mystery, shrouded behind myths and niceties. However, the politically incorrect truth about the region is becoming more prescient as the diaspora balloons, especially in Anglo-America. If you want to get past polite-society conversations and marketing narratives to understand the reality on the ground, this is the book for you.

The Latin America Red Pill is part investigative journalism, part economic analysis, and part autobiography. Fergus Hodgson has spent more than a decade working and traveling as a reporter, editor, and columnist devoted to the region and has lived in Argentina, Ecuador, and Guatemala. Now his penetrating, forthright reflections are available in a compelling, easy-to-follow form.

The Latin America Red Pill explains the region's crime, poverty, class divisions, anticapitalist sentiments, and low trust. This book is crucial reading for the policymaker, investor, and educator. It is also a warning to prospective migrants to the region, so they can go in with their eyes open. Listeners will learn:

• how to survive the law of the jungle;
• when a move to Latin America makes sense;
• why conservative outreach to Hispanics fails;
• the key to entrepreneurial success in the region;
• a path forward for fruitful Anglo-Latin relations;
• what Latin America needs to achieve development.
