BRIAN JONES - BLACK HISTORY IS FOR EVERYONE BOOK TALK
Black history IS American history and is for EVERYONE.

​

Educator, scholar and author, Brian Jones will be at Uncle Bobbie's to discuss his latest book, Black History is for Everyone. Brian will be in conversation with fellow educator and writer, Ismael Jimenez.

​

With Black history under attack from many fronts, it's never been more important to read, engage with and share the works being written by our truth-tellers. This will be an excellent opportunity to learn and discuss race, politics, culture and how Blackness is an undeniable part of it all.

​

Book signing will follow the discussion and Q&A.
