Ep. 4 Men We Reaped by Jesmyn Ward -- The Stacks Book Club (Sarah Fong)

On this week of The Stacks, PhD candidate Sarah Fong is back, and we're talking about Jesmyn Ward's memoir, Men We Reaped. Our conversation dives into the deaths of five Black men in Ward's life, and what these deaths say about the greater experience of Black people in America. We discuss substance abuse, mental health, grief, systemic racism and a lot more.

There are spoilers in this episode, so if you've yet to read the book proceed with caution.
