Tayari's Blog: At Last! "We Speak Your Names"

I was originally planning this post to remind you all that Pearl Cleage and I will be speaking at the North Carolina Book Festival on Sunday, April 30th at 1:30 pm. But while I was getting the post together, I saw Pearl on instant message and she told me that the poem she wrote for Oprah's Legends Party, WE SPEAK YOUR NAMES, will be published next month! You can preorder here. And here's the real treat: Pearl has recorded the audio in her own lovely voice!

I had the opportunity to hear Pearl Cleage read that poem at Spelman back in February at Spelman... Left me speechless... I will definitely pick up a copy!
