In her new book of essays, author Janet Cheatham Bell shares her unique insights into lessons learned from growing up black in America. Henry Louis Gates Jr. called her a “pioneer.” She talks about how much progress has, or hasn’t, been made in race relations, given the events of 2014. Her subjects range from spirituality and family history, to “too big to fail,” and to mass transit. A very informative and entertaining discussion, with lessons to be learned.
