Description

Hey well read baddies, welcome to another #Black365 minisode! Today we engage in a deep and enlightening conversation with the creators of the book, 'Ghosts of Segregation: American Racism Hidden in Plain Sight.' The discussion involves photographer Richard 'Rich' Frishman and author Dr. Brian Foster. They discuss the concept of their book touching upon the profound connection between places with racial significance across the United States and the prevalence of racism in today's society. Both guests share their perspectives, their journey with the book, and the need for society to confront and comprehend the distant and recent past to address present racial inequities.

SHE WELL READ is a bite-sized book club that believes we, as women, learn just as much in conversation with each other as we do through reading… so naturally, we combined the two! Each season of the podcast, best friends Alana & Samra, discuss a book that feels relevant & timely to us as twenty-somethings attempting to find balance in our lives as full-time corporate baddies & part-time creatives. SWR releases episodes every Wednesday while in-season / releases bonus episodes every few weeks while in-between seasons. Whether you want to read along & provide your input on a weekly basis (please do!) or if you would prefer to listen at your own pace, all types of readers are encouraged to tune in. :) Special thank you to the Well Read Baddies tuning in. Your consistent support never goes unnoticed.
