Daniel Black, BLACK ON BLACK: On Our Resilience and Brilliance in America

Zibby interviews acclaimed novelist, scholar, and repeat MDHTTRB guest Daniel Black about Black on Black: On Our Resilience and Brilliance in America, a piercing, vulnerable collection of essays about being black in America and the ongoing fight for change. Daniel reveals what inspired him to be so raw and vulnerable for this new project. He also talks about his journey to accepting and embracing his sexuality, his relationship with the church and God, and his thoughts on the Bible (which, he admits, he might just have to rewrite!). Zibby included Black on Black in her 2023 Most Anticipated Books of the Year, and it didn’t disappoint!Purchase on Zibby's Bookshop: http://bit.ly/3ZQ9al2Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3yxk9nDSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.** Want more?
