In this interview, David and I discuss The Movement Made Us, his father's role in the Civil Rights Movement, getting his father's story down and how the format of the book came about, the hardest part of writing the book, what surprised him the most about it, how the cover came about, and much more.
David's recommended reads are:
South to America by Imani Perry
Shine Bright by Danyel Smith
