Yes, yes . I know it’s the day they call Christmas. So to all who partake, enjoy. It’s also Sunday, which means it is THE SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT!!! And for the last Sunday of the year, I give you Andre’s Aces. The fabulous five! These are the best five books I read in 2022! They all deserve your attention. So pull back the red curtain(swipe left) to reveal the Five Aces!! Didn’t Nobody Give a Shit What Happened to Carlotta 🏆All the conventions of writing fiction are kicked to the curb and it’s done so lustrously. Dr. No 🏆 Percival Everett is the best person currently writing fiction, period. Mother Country 🏆 A book that will stir all the emotions as you consider the weight of ethics and morality. Yonder 🏆 A story of the stolen and the thieves amplifying love and tenderness. South To America 🏆 Ms. Imani Perry is the best person writing non-fiction in these times. The Queen! This book proves it, as she easily shifts through genres, as she takes the readers on a journey South! So, that’s all folks, and if you want to read my thoughts on these great books, you’ll have to scroll through my feed and click on the covers. P.S. As an addendum, the best bookstore in the Southwest, USA is hands down @kindredstorieshtx. They have the best mix of inventory, customer service, appearance, and customer engagement. Terri Hamm is bringing a professionalism to book retailing, that is often lacking in many of our establishments! If you are in Houston, TX go check them out. If not you can order online. They are very deserving of your support. #ownvoicesreviews #bookpusher #pushingbooksainteasy #kindredstories #imaniperry #jabariasim #percivaleverett #jacindatownsend #jameshanaham #blackbooksmatter #goodblackreads #sundayspotlight #blackbibliophile #readologist #readmorebooks #bestbooksof2022 (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cml6w8eLMS5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Went for a walk before the temperature reaches the expected 107 while listening to #breathealettertomysons by #imaniperry Man, I wish I had not been so adverse to non fiction as a young adult (I’m thinking of that as 16-30yo) because I really could’ve used a book like this one growing up without parental guidance as I did. My father died when I was 15 and my mother lived in a different country so we were never close. I read a lot to escape, to help me fall asleep, to calm the anxiety, but I never thought of reading others stories to seek the wisdom I needed. I often sought out older people as friends/parental surrogates instead. Ms. Perry’s words are beautiful and honest and are definitely worth a read in this time of fear, uncomfortability, unlearning, and hopefully change. I look forward to finishing this one. #bookstagram #audiobooks #memoirs #bookgeek #bookworm #booknerd #audiobookstagram #bookish #bibliophile #bookaddict #bookaholic #bookaholicsanonymous #bibliotherapy #bipocauthors #librarybooks #readersofinstagram #reading #currentlylisteningto #read #books #nonfiction #readmorebooks #readthisbook https://www.instagram.com/p/CEzi6Geg0MU/?igshid=1b6isx9r3of5i

I started my day with a lecture with #davidmura about teaching a diverse student body and the writing workshop and ending my day at @radcliffe.institute with a talk about #writingblacklives The biographers Tomiko Brown-Nagin, Imani Perry, and Robert Reid-Pharr will discuss how their work speaks to key contemporary conversations about black life, politics, community, and identity. It is moments like these that I am happy to live where I live and work where I work. I get access to writers I not only admire but also show me the direction I would like to go in. So, I am speaking this into existence. Someday soon, my book will be published and I will have a talk at my alma mater #emersoncollege and also be a part of the #radcliffeinstitute lecture series. #writinggoals #writingchangeslives #blackwriters #blackwritersofinstagram #asianwriters #asianwritersofinstagram #tomikobrownnagin #imaniperry #robertreidpharr @imaniperry https://www.instagram.com/p/B3fZjW7hqlm/?igshid=1k3awa49l4nth

"A Real writer spends His/Her Whole Life trying closing the gaps between Languages and Thoughts" --- Arundhati Roy ———————— Thank you @haymarketbooks for hosting the conversation with @imaniperry and #ArundhatiRoy. It was indeed a blessed time to see Arundhati Roy (booker prize winner) after 3 long years.

Spreads from 'Mario Moore: The Work of Several Lifetimes,' a Black History Month Staff Pick.⁠ ⁠ Over the years, artist and Detroit native Mario Moore (born 1987) has observed that the halls of elite institutions like universities and art museums prominently feature portraits of donors, deans, presidents, board members and scholars, and that the subjects of those portraits are mostly white and male. When Moore was selected as a Princeton University Hodder Fellow in 2018, he wanted to ask what positions garner such attention and how could painting contribute to conversations on who deserves to be recognized. He set out to meet Black men and women who work in and around Princeton University in blue-collar jobs and let the art-making process unfold from their collaborative interactions. In the resulting works, Moore redefines the colonial gaze for the subjects he paints, allowing them to look directly out with an unflinching stare. This publication includes sketches, drawings, etchings and paintings.⁠ ⁠ Introduction by Jessica Bell Brown. Text by Tracy K. Smith, Imani Perry, Awoye Timpo, V. Mitch McEwen, Ruha Benjamin, Mario Moore.⁠ ⁠ Read more via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ @mariomooreart #mariomoore #jessicabellbrown #tracyksmith #imaniperry #awoyetimpo #vmitchmcewen #ruhabenjamin #workofseverallifetimes #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth https://www.instagram.com/p/Caadv2kJ2pV/?utm_medium=tumblr

Join @studiomuseum, @nypl and author @imaniperry this Saturday at the George Bruce branch for #StudioSalon: #LookingforLorraine! 👀 This discussion and interactive workshop is inspired by her book “Looking for Lorraine: The Radiant and Radical Life of Lorraine Hansberry.” In the book, Perry paints an empathetic portrait of an artist who lived in a community of thinkers working at the intersections of art and activism throughout New York City. In this Studio Salon, Perry will highlight Lorraine Hansberry's community activism and impact on Harlem. This program will be followed by an informal Q&A. 🙋🏽‍♀️ This Studio Salon is part of the Museum's ongoing partnership with George Bruce Library and is presented as part of #inHarlem, The Studio Museum in Harlem's initiative designed to explore innovative ways to work in the community while taking the Museum beyond its own walls.
