Listen "Community Read"
Episode Synopsis
Today, Sara touches on the pick for this year's Big Read. The Big Read is a community reading program sponsored by the University of Arkansas - Fort Smith. This year's featured novel is Colson Whitehead's The Nickel Boys. In this Pulitzer Prize-winning follow-up to The Underground Railroad, Colson Whitehead brilliantly dramatizes another strand of American history through the story of two boys unjustly sentenced to a hellish reform school in Jim Crow-era Florida.
