Ep 268 - The Notebook Suite Vol. 2: Natalie Y. Moore

AirGo is excited to present The Notebook Suite, a series of conversations with writers about liberation, craft, and radical imagination co-curated by poet Nate Marshall. On this episode, we have the pleasure of talking with Chicago legend, WBEZ journalist, and writer Natalie Y. Moore. The author of popular and necessary books The South Side, Almighty Black P Stone Nation, and Deconstructing Tyrone, Natalie talks about how she maneuvers complex responses to her work, how telling the story of segregation helped her report on the pandemic, and much more.
