Happy April, librarians! We’re here to spring a new podcast episode on you! The Library Love Fest team will tell you about the books that are currently blooming on our shelves. Okay, okay, enough with the puns.
Listen here:
The true highlight of this episode is a conversation between Wesley Lowery, author of American Whitelash, and his editor, Rakia Clark! More about American Whitelash (on sale 6/27/2023): Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Wesley Lowery confronts the sickness at the heart of American society: the cyclical pattern of violence that has marred every moment of racial progress in this country, and whose bloodshed began anew following Obama’s 2008 election.
Stick around after Wesley and Rakia’s insightful conversation to hear a voicemail from a librarian like you and reminders about our upcoming events.
