In Episode 2 of Shelf Sabotage™, we sit down with P. Djèlí Clark to discuss his award winning novella, Ring Shout, and the cultural traditions that resonate with themes explored in the movie Sinners.

From the spiritual roots of ring shouts to Black folklore, resistance, and the role of media in shaping history, we unpack the deeper connections between the book, the film, and the cultural traditions that inspired them.
