In Conversation with Imani Perry @ The Nantucket Book Festival

She is the author of six books, from a deep dive into early hip hop, to Breathe: A Letter to My Sons, her meditation on the calling of mothering Black boys in America, to her latest – an eye-opening journey through the South to find the soul of our nation.
