pickAn interesting book about a couple who fled New York City to seek a simpler life in the Mississippi Delta. It wasn‘t that simple after all, and I found Grant‘s treatment of the issues in the area to be nuanced. I wish there was an update.

pickI started this book unsure of how I was going to like it. I am glad that I chose this. The audio I was unsure of turned out to be amazing.

pickI‘ve spent some time in the Delta. Life there is a series of contradictions, challenges, struggles, and uncomfortable truths. Richard Grant immerses himself in a largely unknown and misunderstood part of the US and addresses these things tactfully, intelligently, and with humor and compassion. He also reminds me of just how much I love it there.
Happy Founders Day to all of my Sorors!!! 106 years of continuous scholarship, sisterhood, and service!! Not all of these books were written by sorors but all of these books were written by black women. We must continue to celebrate the accomplishments of black women and support their endeavors big or small.
