Second printing!
Racial Innocence is going into its second printing--less than three months after the first print run! Many thanks to everyone who bought a copy, everyone who asked their library to buy a copy, and especially everyone who assigned my book in courses.

Radio, Video, and Print, Oh My!
This past fall and winter, I was interviewed 19 times on regional NPR and other stations. I had a blast talking about childhood and race, Raggedy Ann dolls and the Scarecrow from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and lots more on a variety of African American, feminist, religious, queer, and progressive shows. Many thanks to all the interviewers who asked such great questions. Here's the archive--along with some older video and print interviews about Racial Innocence. Enjoy!

Interview with Uprising Radio
Many thanks to Sonali Kolhatkar and Uprising Radio for a terrific interview on W-KPFK. Sonali asked me great questions about the history of childhood innocence, topsy-turvy dolls, and changes in the perception of black and white children. You can hear the interview
here. Thanks, Sonali, and thanks, Uprising Radio!
