On this week of The Stacks we are joined by Sarah Fong, a PhD Candidate in American Studies. Sarah is currently writing her dissertation on U.S. practices of social welfare, particularly as they relate to histories of slavery and colonization. This week we talk about the writing process, reading for work vs. reading for pleasure, and the power of books to teach us new things, and allow us to make changes in the world.
Get to know Sarah this week, before next week's The Stacks Book Club conversation on Jesmyn Ward's Men We Reaped.
You can find everything we discuss on today's show on The Stacks' Website: https://thestackspodcast.com/2018/04/18/ep-3-talking-books-with-sarah-fong
