I always love my conversations with L. Michelle Smith! Here's our latest chat on her Culture Soup Podcast about my new book, "Joy Goddess: A'Lelia Walker and the Harlem Renaissance" and how A'Lelia Walker was an "influencer" more than a century ago! instagram.com/reel/DHbGasnuD…

I held my breath as I opened my Google alerts this morning. Then I exhaled when I saw Publishers Weekly 's starred review for "#JoyGoddess: A'Lelia Walker and the Harlem Renaissance." I'm just going to float through the day thinking about this big red star. The hard work paid off.

Excited to be launching my new book "Joy Goddess: A'Lelia Walker and the Harlem Renaissance" at SchomburgCenter just steps away from where A'Lelia Walker lived when she arrived in Harlem in 1913. Hope to see many New York friends there.

Such a pleasure to speak with GerryDick about my new book "Joy Goddess: A'Lelia Walker and the Harlem Renaissance," about MadamWalkerArchives's legacy as an entrepreneur and about the current backlash to the progress women & people of color have made during the last 50 years.

I wrote "Joy Goddess" as part of my mission to make sure that young people know history. "The ancestors are insisting that the stories be told. You can ban a book but it doesn't matter because we are going to keep telling the stories. You can not stop us!" bit.ly/3TlTjt5
