Savala Nolan, DON'T LET IT GET YOU DOWN: Essays on Race, Gender, and the Body

Lawyer, professor, and writer Savala Nolan joins Zibby to discuss her debut essay collection, Don’t Let It Get You Down, which covers the topics of race, gender, and our bodies. Savala reflects on the different iterations her relationship with her mother has gone through and shares where they are today. The two also talk about how Savala began writing as a way to find her place in a world where she doesn't fit in seamlessly, and how it has also allowed her to process experiences that would have otherwise festered inside of her.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3neOuBpBookshop: https://bit.ly/3neQFVB** If you enjoy recommending things you love and even earning from it, you have to become a creator on ShopMy!
