I had a great conversation with writer/researcher Michelle Porter, and community outreach worker/roller-derby-ist Jane Bannister. We touched on poetry, writing by indigenous writers, science fiction, and why we should not wait till we are old ladies to wear purple.
(You'll need to forgive the audio quality on this one: due to a microphone error on my part there's some background noise and echo that's distracting, though my fabulous sound technician Chris Cole did a great job of cleaning it up as much as possible to make it listen-able). As always, you can find the show notes with links to all the books we talked about at: https://shelfesteem2017.wordpress.com/2020/02/24/episode-31-we-should-start-wearing-purple-now/
