The CodeX Cantina

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Let's talk about "Sonny's Blues" by James Baldwin today. The tone is filled with dread and fear and features family trauma, suffering, finding oneself, validation. We have some wonderful usage of call and response with listening and being heard. We also need to talk about the cup of trembling and turning suffering into music. But we have to follow an Algebra teacher... ewww! Just kidding, let's talk about a masterpiece of literature.

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Lezlie and I sit down for a fireside chat on "The Only Good Indians" by Stephen Graham Jones. We will start off Spoiler Free but as a Fireside Chat we will drop Spoilers as we get deeper into the talk. If you're new to this channel, we tend to go deeper into stories and have little regard to plot. We stay light but for people sensitive, you've been warned if you're new here.

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! This week we talk about Toni Cade Bambara's "The Lesson." A wonderful piece that really shows active learning in education. With the herd mentality and crab mentality layered on top of it, it's easy to see why this story is absolutely incredible!

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Let's take a look at appearances and loyalty in "The Gilded Six-Bits" by Zora Neale Huston today.

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Is "The Brothers Karamazov" by Fyodor Dostoevsky the best Dostoevsky book to begin with? What is the point of it? The validity of religion, social critique, nihilism, and more to talk about in this novel, so let's pick out some things to be thinking about before starting this highly lauded novel. 

We'll follow up with more videos in our playlist for Dostoevsky: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVJDI8sWJMk&list=PLHg_kbfrA7YCEKqinjgjcOgYB2OsDPXeS
