Ep. 279 Inaction Is a Form of Police Brutality with Nora Neus

August 9, 2023September 12, 2023 ~ TheStacksPodcast ~ Leave a comment

Emmy-nominated journalist Nora Neus is here to discuss her illuminating new book 24 Hours in Charlottesville: An Oral History of the Stand Against White Supremacy. The book chronicles the events of 2017, where armed neo-Nazi demonstrators descended on the University of Virginia campus and downtown Charlottesville. Nora explains why she didn’t interview white nationalists for the book, how she found her subjects and sources, and how she navigated objective versus subjective truth while telling this story.

The Stacks Book Club selection for August is You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Akwaeke Emezi. We will discuss the book on August 30th with Sam Sanders.

The Stacks Book Club – July 2023

July 1, 2023July 1, 2023 ~ TheStacksPodcast ~ Leave a comment

The Stacks’ July book club selection is the Hugo Award-winning Watchmen, written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbons. Widely considered the greatest graphic novel ever made, the full volume was first released in 1987; it has since been adapted into the 2009 theatrical film and the 2019 HBO limited series. The story is set in an alternate reality version of 1980s America, with historical and political events affected by its cast of outlawed vigilantes, who mostly lack superhuman powers and struggle with their own tragic flaws. Its title refers to the question “Who will watch the watchmen themselves?”

We will discuss Watchmen By Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons on Wednesday, July 26th. You can find out who our guest will be by listening to our July 5th episode. If you’d like even more discussion around the book, consider joining The Stacks Pack on Patreon and participating in The Stacks’ monthly virtual book club.

LA’s indie bookstore Rep Club offers you 10% off your copy of Watchmen via this link using the code STACKS10 at checkout!
