Coming next week from 다중지성의 정원 (Galmuri Press), a Korean edition of a second graphic novel I wrote with David Lester. This is the sixth of my books Galmuri has published, with another to come. Grateful.

It was my good fortune to meet Maryse Condé in Paris in 2018. What an extraordinary and singular voice.

Warm thanks to my friend Dave Clinch for sending me a copy of his recently published book of poetry, *The Empty Place at the Table*. The book shows a searching, humane mind engaged with the central problems of our time. Congratulations, Dave!

I received a stellar review from Marcus Rediker, a distinguished professor at the University of Pittsburgh! His insights on my book 'Combee: Harriet Tubman, the Combahee River Raid, and Black Freedom During the Civil War' are deeply appreciated. Thank you, Marcus!

It looks like my new book on escaping slavery by sea in Atlantic antebellum America will be published by Viking Books next spring. It features a chapter on Frederick Douglass as a man of the waterfront.

Can anyone recommend a publisher of graphic novels in France? David Lester and I have published our work in Britain, Italy, Japan, Korea, Spain, and Thailand, but not France, where graphic novels are especially popular. I'd be grateful for suggestions.

Here, for Black History Month, is an interview I gave about the Amistad Rebellion of 1839 to Devin Lander for the A New York Minute In History. Three cheers for serious public history!

I highly recommend this NEH Summer Seminar for middle and high school teachers: 'Abolitionism and the Underground Railroad' taught by the excellent scholar Graham Hodges (ghodges0). (I will be one of the guest speakers.) Applications must be in March 5.
