In honor of Juneteenth, this episode of Big Blend Radio features author and writer Tamara J. Walker who discusses her book, "Beyond the Shores: A History of African Americans Abroad," which is a New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice.
Part historical exploration, part travel memoir, "Beyond the Shores" reveals poignant histories of a diverse group of African American expats who left the United States (and its racism) behind, building new lives abroad. Learn about Florence Mills, the would-be Josephine Baker of her day, in Paris, Richard Wright, the author turned actor and filmmaker, in Buenos Aires, and more.
Along with being Associate Professor of Africana Studies at Barnard College of Columbia University, Tamara is the author of “Exquisite Slaves: Race, Clothing, and Status in Colonial Lima.” More: https://www.tamarajwalker.com/
She is also a co-founder of The Wandering Scholar, a 501c3 non-profit whose mission is to make international education opportunities accessible to students from low-income backgrounds. More: https://www.thewanderingscholar.org/
