Denham Springs, New Orleans, Lafayette, Baton Rouge bookstores host author Jeremy White
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Baton Rouge, LA — Sept. 22, 2025 — Four independent bookstores across South Louisiana will host events featuring author Jeremy White within a week of his next memoir’s release. InHumana: An American Healthcare Story tells how the only child was conscripted into a war with a soulless monstrosity that repeatedly tried to throw his widowed mom’s life away with the surreptitious aid of unregulated artificial intelligence, all while gaslighting them with contradictory cover stories.
White will sign copies of his upcoming paperback following his 5 p.m. presentation of InHumana at Cavalier House Books in Denham Springs on Tuesday, Oct. 7, the book’s release date. Octavia Books in Uptown New Orleans will host White for a presentation and book signing at 6 p.m on Thursday, Oct. 9. On Saturday, Oct. 11, Cavalier House Books in Lafayette is featuring the memoirist with a meet and greet event from 5-7 p.m. during the monthly Downtown ArtWalk. White will sign copies from 1-3 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 12, as part of a pop-up event at Red Stick Reads in Mid-City Baton Rouge.
“Jeremy White poignantly illustrates the untold harm silently inflicted on countless patients and providers by forcing healers to operate in an unforgiving economic jungle.“
Thom Hartmann, radio host and New York Times bestselling author of The Hidden History of American Healthcare: Why Sickness Bankrupts You and Makes Others Insanely Rich
Months after a stroke and two seizures robbed author Jeremy White’s mom of use of her right side, a federal judge ruled her the victor of their war against Humana for wrongfully denying critically needed care. Their battle, which involved multiple hearings and appeals, is one that fewer than 10 percent of denied Medicare Advantage Plan members like her bother fighting, despite a 90 percent success rate for appeals. A Pulitzer-nominated investigation and two class-action lawsuits—one against Humana, another against UnitedHealth and its co-defendants—would eventually demystify Humana’s wanton gaslighting by revealing the shocking truth behind their inhumane decisions.
“A must-read for anyone who believes in the power of reform and the dignity of care“
That Librarian author Amanda Jones, 2021 School Library Journal Librarian of the Year
InHumana is a timely examination of the medical-industrial complex from the belly of the beast that explores what it means to be human and eviscerates the farce of corporate personhood. White’s genuine humor buoys heavy topics and hard-learned lessons about a nebulous appeals process. His epilogue — which addresses “Deny,” “Defend” and “Depose” — was prompted by a surge of interest in InHumana following the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
White Lines Press will publish InHumana: An American Healthcare Story as a 172-page paperback, ebook, and audiobook on October 7. All three versions are available for presale through a host of booksellers, including hundreds of partnered independent bookstores across the country, all listed and mapped on InHumanaBook.com.
