Honouring the contributions and achievements of the Black community this month and every month. What better place to start than with the brilliant mind of James Baldwin!
The murder of 28 children in Atlanta between 1979 -1981, is used as a jumping off point to dissect race and race relations in America, as only the great James Baldwin can.
What‘s your favourite work by James Baldwin?

PurpleyPumpkin This sounds so interesting. Strangely enough, I‘ve not yet read a JB book. I must rectify that! Would this be a good book to start with? Or is there another that you‘d recommend to begin with? 1d

Treena Reads @PurpleyPumpkin A really great one but not sure it‘s an appropriate one to start with. I‘ve only read 4 of his works, so I am not sure I would be the best to advise you. However, the Guardian- my trusted source for all things book has wrote this article https://www.theguardian.com/books/article/2024/aug/02/where-to-start-with-james-... 15h
