The Power of Poetry

Saison 2 · Épisode 8

jeudi 24 octobre 2024 • Durée 41:34

This episode of the Velshi Banned Book Club will confront the barrier to entry that surrounds poetry and tear it down by closely examining a masterclass in poetic storytelling: “Brown Girl Dreaming” by Jacqueline Woodson. "Brown Girl Dreaming" follows Woodson’s childhood split between segregated Greenville, South Carolina, and New York City. “Brown Girl Dreaming” is a beautiful look at childhood, identity, and racism in America. The Poetry Foundation's Young People's Poet Laureate from 2015 to 2017, Woodson proves that poems tell more in a few turns of phrase than many novels tell us in an entire chapter.

The Constitution of the United States: A Complete Reading

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

jeudi 12 octobre 2023 • Durée 01:01:34

Is there a work of writing more influential than the Constitution of the United States? Is there a work of writing more weaponized, more debated, and more quoted and misquoted? On this special episode of the Velshi Banned Book Club we will provide crucial context and a complete reading of the sacred document so that you can decide for yourself. This is the agreement that laid the foundation for the heated exchange of ideas at the core of this podcast. While the Constitution has yet to be outright banned, Former President Trump has called for its “termination” – a brazen attack on the words that serve as the bones of this nation. The time to understand and evaluate this document is now.

The Black Literary Canon

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

jeudi 5 octobre 2023 • Durée 50:01

Few authors have changed American culture more than the unparalleled Toni Morrison and the amazing Zora Neale Hurston. This episode of the Velshi Banned Book Club examines two crucial books in the Black literary canon: “Beloved” and “Their Eyes Were Watching God”. Ivy league scholars Dr. Imani Perry and Dr. Eddie Glaude Jr. look at celebrated work “Beloved”, a book that demands you look squarely in the face of not only the institution of slavery in this country, but its continued effect. Then, Dr. Perry and Ibram X. Kendi open the covers of “Their Eyes Were Watching God”, the story of a woman searching for dignity and agency.

Reclaiming “Chick-Lit”

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

jeudi 28 septembre 2023 • Durée 26:24

There is a persistent and damaging sexist trope that books written by women and for women are frivolous, light, and devoid of true meaning. On this episode of Velshi Banned Book Club Podcast we subvert that narrative with two powerful “chick-lit” books that have equally important messages: "Ready or Not" by Meg Cabot and “Speak” by Laurie Halse Anderson. “Ready or Not” focuses on high schoolers grappling with the magnitude of sex and consent. “Speak” poignantly explores the immediate aftermath and emotional repercussions of sexual assault.

The Latino Identity in Literature

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

jeudi 21 septembre 2023 • Durée 22:41

Latino representation in the literary and publishing community is startlingly low -- a survey conducted by Lee & Low Books and Boston University in 2020, found that a mere 6% of publishers identify as Latino. There are just a few books for such a large and diverse group – the quickest growing population in America. Both “Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe” by Benjamin Alire Sáenz and “Out of Darkness” by Ashley Hope Pérez explore what it means to be Latino. Both books are also poignant love stories: "Aristotle and Dante” is a lyrically written depiction of first LGBTQ+ love, while “Out of Darkness” is, ultimately, an honest and brutal look at racism and sexism in the 1930s.

Reexamining and Reframing U.S. History with Nikole Hannah-Jones

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

jeudi 14 septembre 2023 • Durée 14:05

“The 1619 Project”, named for the year the first enslaved African people arrived on the shores of Virginia, began as an editorial franchise for the New York Times. Since its inception, “The 1619 Project” has faced sharp criticism and relentless calls for its ban -- from school libraries, state Senates, and even from the White House. “The 1619 Project” encapsulates exactly why the books featured on Velshi Banned Book Club are targeted each and every day -- then adds footnotes and an extensive list of distinguished peer reviewers. It represents change that is not just coming – change that is already here.

Using Literature to Grapple with School Shootings

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

jeudi 7 septembre 2023 • Durée 24:23

School shootings can feel inescapable -- especially if you're an American. Authors Jodi Picoult and Todd Strasser grapple with school shootings through literature. Picoult’s “Nineteen Minutes” is told from a place of healing. The reader is not asked to feel compassion for the shooter, but the story lays bare the bullying, taunts, and complicated family dynamics that help to explain the “why”. “Give a Boy a Gun” by Todd Strasser was initially published in 2000 – just one year after the Columbine High School massacre. It was one of the first works of fiction to look at the new reality that followed after Columbine: a world where students can die in their classrooms. It is also one of the few books on this topic written specifically for a young adult audience.

The Prodigious Margaret Atwood

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

jeudi 31 août 2023 • Durée 57:46

Most everyone knows Margaret Atwood’s name for her seminal work “The Handmaid’s Tale”. “The Handmaid’s Tale” is more relevant with each passing day – exploring women’s bodily autonomy, the environment, autocratic regimes, and even the banning of books. Atwood also wrote a stirring modern adaption of William Shakespeare’s “The Tempest”, entitled “Hagseed”. Atwood’s take on the classic grapples with crucial themes including the illusion of justice, the sanctity of family, reality, and even colonization.

Coming of Age as a Black Teen in America

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

jeudi 31 août 2023 • Durée 25:03

The stakes are high when you’re a Black teenager in America – they can be life or death. Both books featured on this episode of Velshi Banned Book Club couple pulled-from-the-headlines urgency with the emotional depth of good fiction. “All American Boys”, co-authored by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely, explores a gutting episode of police brutality from the perspectives of two teenage boys: one Black and one white. Author Nic Stone’s stunning debut novel “Dear Martin”, explores the emotional impact of police brutality through poignant diary entries to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
