In this episode, Caroline and featured episode Sara Manandhar discuss how racial injustice and the BLM movement have been portrayed through literature, as well as debate the importance of reading diverse and socially pertinent novels. Some discussion topics include listing the benefits of reading thought-provoking books, analyzing how the rapidly-rising and popular YA novel market is catering to young activists, and us each giving a miniature “book review” on two historic novels about anti-Black racism: To Kill A Mockingbird and The Hate U Give.
