The advice that Tayari Jones said that her writing mentor Pearl Cleage had given her is the best advice I’ve ever heard to encourage someone to become a writer. It’s so generous and beautiful. Thank you for your show and thank you for that interview.

Just listened to the interview of Gabriel Union, and just as she said that it took her six months to read “The prophets” because she didn’t want the book to end, I didn’t want this interview to end. Thank you!!!

This is an inviting space for listeners to hear from influential authors and public figures, but in a way that’s welcoming. Well made show.

Reading these books won’t make you a well read black girl. Actually the books one should read to become a well read black girl are the same books one should read to become a well read white girl, or Asian man etc.. Ethno-narcissism doesn’t make a person smart, in fact it does quite the opposite.

Love that you are bringing WRBG conversations about books and authors to those of us who can’t get to the festivals (#goals). At the same time it feels like an intimate conversation that you invite each of us to join!
