An early surprise, just in time for the end of Black History Month—the very first copy of SCATTERED AND FUGITIVE THINGS: HOW BLACK COLLECTORS CREATED ARCHIVES AND REMADE HISTORY! Thank you to Philip Leventhal & the Black Lives in the Diaspora series editors Columbia Univ Press Howard University!
Thanks to @WendyKirkGWL for having me, Pauline for writing this amazing blog about it, and Ethelene Whitmire for being the foundational inspiration for this Story Cafe through her amazing book on Regina Anderson Andrews.

Attended a lecture at The American Library in Paris about the history of the institution. I don’t know if the subject of my biography was a patron in 1938-1939, but Reed Peggram loved books and libraries #reedpeggram #books #libraries
Excited to go to Virginia Center for the Creative Arts in 2024 to work on my book, The Remarkable Life of Reed Peggram! #VCCAFellow #biography
