Thank you for the offer but I'm stuck out in the Middle of the Atlantic hoping that the hurricanes miss us. Langston visited my family home Tranquillity and spent time with the writer Brian Burland and the painter John Kaufmann.

Thanks, George. Might we be able to do something by Langston in Story Club at some point? I love his words and work.

James Baldwin: on Feb 1, the NPR podcast Throughline rebroadcast a program on Baldwin that includes recordings of him speaking. You all might appreciate that podcast, in addition to the Langston Hughes piece.

Great space, great performances. If anybody has the ability to attend these, 100% worth it.

Thanks for sharing, George. What a gift for those nearby, and especially for those who will be encouraged and supported to register! Alas, if they could also go virtual and record. At some point, I'd also like to work with a Langston Hughes' story.
