Race in America, in Fiction & Nonfiction: Conversation with Joy-Ann Reid + Leonard Pitts

'In Fracture: Barack Obama, the Clintons, and the Racial Divide, MSNBC national correspondent Joy-Ann Reid shows that, despite the progress we have made, we are still a nation divided—as seen recently in headline-making tragedies such as the killing of Trayvon Martin and the uprisings in Ferguson and Baltimore. In Leonard Pitts’s new novel Grant Park, a disillusioned newspaper columnist is abducted by two white supremacists plotting to explode a bomb at Barack Obama's planned rally in Chicago’s Grant Park in 2008' -- Miami Book Fair
