Interview 003 with Sonja and Leah

from Black America and Covid

Today you will hear me, Sonja, be interviewed by my classmate, Leah. We met in our MFA program for creative writing at City College of New York in 2019. We both attended classes online in 2020. I actually wrote a dark comedy titled The Brunch Club, which was read by Naked Angels Theater on February 1st, 2021 (Thanks Naked Angels!). It’s about five college students from different walks of life who endure a stressed-out college professor (not me) while reading “Love in the Time of Cholera” in class on Zoom. I digress. This is part one of my interview with Leah who asks me a few questions. In this segment you will hear the first question that she asks me, which is: (1) Why did I start my podcast, Black America and Covid? Leah Kogen-Elimeliah is an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the English Department at City College of N.Y. She is also Founder & Director of http://www.wordshednyc.org A social project built on an all-inclusive platform for writers and artists of all backgrounds, infused with a myriad of cultures to gather and celebrate diversity and a creative renewal.
