I’ve walked around more than a few times this week and thought this can’t be real life. Felt that way this morning. Thanks to @NewBlackMan and @LeftOfBlack for the opportunity to interview novelist, playwright, essayist, and Professor of English @Yale, Caryl Phillips.
Prof Neal on how listening widely and intently matters: "This matters in our presidential election. You can't even begin to understand Bernie Sanders and his campaign without understanding and listening to Bob Dylan." @NewBlackMan
Two new arts exhibitions open tonight, 6-8 pm, in the Ruby! “When I Say Africa” and “Haïti-Inter: Three Decades of Resistance.” 🎨 https://t.co/czRzbN8Bwr. 👀
