Author Michele Tracy Berger Mixes Racial Conspiracy with Psychological Horror in "Reenu - You" on Charlotte Readers Podcast

In this Under the Covers episode, we meet Michele Tracy Berger, author of “Reenu – You,” a novella that explores the politics of beauty, corporate conspiracy and unlikely female heroes battling a horrific virus that appears to be targeted against their race.

What if a visit to the salon could kill you? What if a product billed as a “natural hair relaxer” harbored a deadly virus? Reenu-You is about that virus. One reviewer says that in telling this story, Michele uses “the language of horror, of alienation from one's own body, not the language of joy,” and that “the novella never leaves horror and alienation entirely behind.”

Much of Michele’s work explores psychological horror, especially through issues of race and gender.

Author Dixie Gamble's Story Of A Childhood Mystic Turned Nashville Music Executive Turned Filmmaker and Human Rights Activist Comes Alive in “Witch Hairs” on Charlotte Readers Podcast

In today’s episode, we meet Dixie Gamble, author of “Witch Hairs, Mirth, Miracles, Mayhem and Music.” It’s the true story of Dixie’s remarkable life as a Nashville music executive turned filmmaker and human rights activist.

Rodney Crowell, Recording Artist and Author of “Chinaberry Sidewalks” says that “Witch Hairs chronicles the soul journey of a childhood mystic, music business executive, extraterrestrial confidant, primitive culture documentarian, mental health and prison reform activist, adventurer, devoted mother, lover of one of the world’s finest musicians and published author. Dixie Gamble has been there, done that.”

Recording artist Pam Tillis adds that “Dixie Gamble has never done a damn thing small and this memoir is no exception…brazenly admitting to experiences way, way past the realms of the everyday may make books about sex, drugs and rock and roll pale a little in comparison.”

We start the show with Dixie sharing with us some interesting facts about her remarkable life.

Out of my mind: We all worry about how to finish our book, about the state of the world, about our future. Rituals can save the day. We may have to adjust when the world throws us curve balls. But the fundamental connection between goals and the activities that make them real can still prevail.

Shannon spoke with Candy J. Cooper and Marc Aronson about their book, Poisoned Water: How the Citizens of Flint, Michigan, Fought for Their Lives and Warned the Nation. In 2014, as part of a plan to save money, government officials decided to switch Flint, Michigan's water supply from Lake Huron to the Flint River. Within months, many residents broke out in rashes. Soon, children stopped growing. Some people were hospitalized with mysterious illnesses; others died. Citizens of Flint protested that the water was dangerous. Despite what seemed so apparent from the murky, foul-smelling liquid pouring from the city’s faucets, officials refused to listen. The residents later discovered the water had been poisoning thousands of people.

Candy J. Cooper and Marc Aronson will be appearing at the virtual Miami Book Fair November 15-22, 2020. For more information about free registration for this and other virtual events, visit MiamiBookFair.com.
