We are excited to welcome diversity consultant LaTrice Ross as co-host and RBG affiliate Supreme Ra as our special guest for an engaging discussion on Sam Greenlee's iconic novel, The Spook Who Sat By The Door. This groundbreaking work, published in 1969, tells the story of one of America’s first Black CIA agents who navigates the complexities of assimilation to gain the trust of white colleagues, only to subvert expectations by forming an underground network of guerrilla armies through street gangs to combat the systemic mistreatment of Black communities across the U.S.
