With today’s guest, Sister Kennedi Ford, who has her degree in English with Creative Emphasis, we discuss the lack of African American authors in classic literature and the portrayal of African Americans in various facets of entertainment. While it’s true that African Americans are being given roles to play in movies, so many of those roles are not “our story.” Sister Kennedi hopes that her writing will help shape others’ view of American literature, and be able to show readers that African Americans are the main characters of their story.
