Reading While Black Book ClubAuthor: J. Barnes
Reading While Black Book Club is a podcast where we dissect and discuss Black literature. Each month we select a book by us with us in mind giving our listeners access to the authors via interview where their questions get answered and they become part of the show. Friends, community leaders, and activists stop by as we amplify their work in marginalized communities. We promote reading as a self-help tool for better mental health and provide a safe space where individuals can tell their stories. As Black people, Black literature is not monolithic and all of it deserves celebration. Language: en Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it Trailer: |
