Description
Actor and talk-show host Jada Pinkett Smith foreshadows the range of emotions she projects into her memoir by beginning with quiet despair and transitioning to a fierce tone. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb discuss Smith’s willingness to explain her perspective with her strong, unique, and compelling narration. Smith shares intimate details of growing up in Baltimore; shouts as she recounts being held at gunpoint while dealing drugs in her youth; and speaks fondly of the late legendary rapper Tupac Shakur. The details of Smith’s life—including the infamous slap—are captivating.
