More soon . . .

This event is all the more worth your presence because it will be my first public presentation of work from my forthcoming monograph, Be Real Black for Me: About the Matter of Roberta Flack (@dukepress.bsky.social)

See you then!

You had time today.

Check the link below to register for this lecture—I have no doubt it will be as intriguing as the short story itself.

More soon . . .
