ABOUT THE BOOK:

The tongue Sheree Renée Thomas dreams in is soft and sharp, ethereal and down-home.

This book of poems, stories, and essays draws together examples illustrating a mind immersed in Black legends and white myths, and in the growing realization of our place in the world and time, and in irresistible pull of the future: starships, floods, dancers twinned by crystal-filled caverns, and iridescent crops of living retribution. In her interview, Thomas explores the intricate intersections of poetry and activism and underscores the way she inhabits them. Taste with this book’s tongue the salty sweetness of her world.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Sheree Renée Thomas is a multiple award-winning author, poet, and editor. She curated World Fantasy Award-winning anthologies Dark Matter 1 and 2 and was the first to introduce W.E.B. Du Bois’s science fiction to speculative fiction readers. She’s associate editor of Obsidian: Literature & the Arts in the African Diaspora and senior editor of The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. She lives in Memphis, Tennessee.

ABOUT THE  CONVERSATION PARTNER:

Robert Gordon is a Grammy winning writer and an Emmy winning filmmaker. His films include Best of Enemies and William Eggleston’s Stranded in Canton. His books include It Came From Memphis and Respect Yourself: Stax Records and the Soul Explosion.

NYC Book Talk—Keep Going: A Guide to Organizing When It’s Hard

Join us for a celebration of Ellen David Friedman’s new book, Keep Going: A Guide to Organizing When It’s Hard on October 23, 2026 in-person from 6pm to 8pm at Woodbine NYC; 414 Broadway, 3rd Floor New York, NY 10013

Organizing can be tough. Co-workers get scared, meetings flop, committees crack, leaders disappoint, and momentum stalls. But when everything feels like it’s falling apart, this book will be your lifeline—helping you get back up, dust yourself off, and figure out your next step.

Drawing on 50 years of experience advising thousands of workers, Ellen David Friedman has created a starter kit and field guide for workplace organizers—offering core principles, examples, and a framework for making sense of the chaos.

Registration is required here. The event is free and open to the public. There will be a discussion followed by a Q&A.

Join Jessica Lawless in Sacramento, CA at Avid Reader Broadway on Saturday, October 24th for a discussion and signing of Cultural Capital Doesn’t Pay the Rent: A Queer Memoir.  1945 Broadway Sacramento, CA 95818. Learn more here.

Cultural Capital Doesn’t Pay the Rent is a story about loss, economic survival, and three decades of organizing against the interlocking hellscapes of neoliberalism. Jessica Lawless’s memoir is a queer, anarcho-punk history of community care and healing justice.

Jessica Lawless is an artist and one of the cofounders of the self-defense collective Home Alive. Her artwork has been shown in galleries across the US, included in international anarchist and queer film festivals, and censored by a Catholic university. She was a regular contributor to make/shift magazine and periodically contributes to the Anarchist Review of Books. Jessica wrote the introduction to Lady Lazarus: Confronting Lydia Lunch (Questing Beast, UK), contributed a chapter to Resolutions 3: Global Networks of Video (University of Minnesota Press), and had pieces in the anthologies Feminisms in Motion: Voices for Justice, Liberation, and Transformation (AK Press) and Places Like Home (Literary Kitchen). A former adjunct professor and labor organizer, she lives in Sacramento, CA with her partner Von and their two toothless cats.
