Listen "3 writers on finding their voices — and the power of personal stories"
Episode Synopsis
To wrap up our first season, Bookends is bringing you to the Festival of Literary Diversity in Brampton. Tanya Talaga, Morgan Campell and Amal Elsana Alh'jooj may be memoir writers from different walks of life — but a common thread in their work is how they continually use their voices to negotiate challenging conversations. They recently joined Mattea Roach on stage for a live panel, where they spoke about the value of difficult conversations … and how telling personal stories creates empathy at large.Hear the rest of our interview with Tanya Talaga here:Tanya Talaga: Searching for her great-great grandmother — a story of family, truth and survival
