Description

"Systemic racism is not something that we made once and we're still under the weight of. It's something we recreate every day." Novelist and professor Calvin Baker joins Zibby to discuss his first nonfiction book, A More Perfect Reunion, and how the historical reckoning that inspired each of his novels helped him put it together. They discuss the myths of race in American society as well as what Calvin sees as the path away from it.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3x9MnmnBookshop: https://bit.ly/3hCvA4R Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
